SINGLE SOURCE DETERMINATION USING

SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (SAP)

FOR AN ACTION NOT EXCEEDING THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD

(AUTHORITY: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1))

NM-AN2120-23-01053

Agency and contracting activity. Department of Commerce, NOAA Office of Marine and Aviation Operations, Acquisition, Analysis, and Accountability Branch

Description of supplies or services required to meet agency needs (including the estimated value).

Vendor to manufacture and provide a new and genuine Marathon SSDG No. 1 generator direct replacement for the damaged obsolete model 433RSL4827. Serial No. 433RSL4827 (base model 433RSL4021) equipped with an SAE #1/14 adaption, winding RTDs, one bearing RTD, IP22 drip cover, space heaters, bus bars, a paralleling CT, an MVC300 and ABS certification.

Identification of the single source or the brand name to be solicited.

Marathon Generators (Owned by Regal Rexnord)

Supporting rationale. Only one source or brand name is reasonably available as detailed below:

□ - The required supplies or service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit, and function) with existing systems or equipment and the source is uniquely qualified to meet the requirement. This is one of two (2) Marathon generators installed on NOAA Ship Thomas Jefferson’s engine. Direct replacing the failed unit ensures all platforms are compatible with the drive system. Installing a comparable generator would endanger the ship’s ABS certification. Purchase may be made from any Marathon authorized distributor.

Market Research.

Marathon Generators has only one (1) outside distributor, Davidson Sales Company, a large business. Marathon will not honor third party distributor warranties limiting competition to the two large businesses.
