About this file

This memorandum concerns a sole source justification for an acquisition under the simplified acquisition threshold. The Navy requires overhaul of the stern tube seals on USNS ZEUS during drydocking, to be completed between January 17, 2024 and May 21, 2024. Wartsila Chesapeake, Virginia is identified as the only responsible source due to proprietary rights over the required seal design. The justification cites urgency and lack of other options as reasons for restricting competition to this single brand and vendor.
