PURCHASE REQUEST OR REQUISTION NUMBER: 2121401B4500DA006
PROJECTTASK NUMBER:
ESTIMATED AMOUNT OVER 3000 BUT NOT EXCEEDING 150000:
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Purchase of:

Three-Hundred (300) Turntable Bolt; P/N: YMD-8953; NSN: 3950-01-516-5810 Two (02) Winch, Main Fall; P/N: AMD-2767; NSN 3950-01-671-2105

OEM: Appleton Marine Inc. CAGE CODE: 70433

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: The Turntable bolts and the Main Fall Winch are critical components attached to the main buoy crane of the 225' WLB and 175' WLM Buoy Crane that is used for these classes of cutter's primary mission. Failure of the bolts could cause catastrophic and irreparable damage to the crane operator's station, and the failure of the Main Fall winch could cause the crane to have a catastrophic failure while hoisting extremely heavy objects from the water. The Main Fall winch is also in critical need as these have become obsolete and this is the replacement winch for the entire 175' WLM fleet. The Coast Guard does not possess the design data and tolerances required to evaluate alternative parts supplied by other sources to determine compatibility with the parts being replaced.
REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES: The Coast Guard did not purchase the manufacturer's proprietary data rights, and therefore, cannot determine with certainty that an alternative part number would mount to, interface with, or operate effectively on currently installed crane systems installed on the Coast Guard 225' WLB and 175' WLM buoy tenders. Use of parts supplied by other than the OEM could cause failure of the features and configured to the buoy crane system resulting in reduction and loss of the cutter's ability to maintain navigation aids, or cause personnel injury or property damage from not being able to service critical navigational waterways and narrow shipping channels.
EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE: When the Coast Guard purchased the original equipment there were no requirements for manufacturer's drawings, detailed parts lists, design or testing procedures. OEM is the only known manufacturer that has the techniques, design specifications, testing, quality assurance capability, and documentation necessary to manufacture these parts as used on board Coast Guard Cutters.
PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS IF ANY THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED: COR will continue to conduct market research with a focus on locating vendors that are able to meet requirements, however without technical data described above obtaining full and open competition will be difficult. The Coast Guard cannot require any vendor to release proprietary information.
