X Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source or particular brand name (unique features, function of the item, etc.).

Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.

All parts must be direct OEM replacements for an Ecrolina Tubing Bender Model#TB-130VS, Serial#9119002. These parts are necessary for overall functionality of this machine and are intended to restore this machines production capabilities to OEM factory specification ultimately returning this machine to a fully operation status. These parts are integral to the configuration of the existing machines design, castings, framework, dimensional specifications, and OEM manufacture capability specifications to function with Ecrolina Tubing Bender Model#TB-130VS, Serial#9119002. Ecrolina is the current sole owner of the Brand name and holds multiple patients on its design. No other commercial companies can sell or distribute Ecrolina brand products without exclusive consent from the manufacture.

X The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the

Government.

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

X The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. Justi Describe the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

The requested OEM repair parts are for an Ecrolina Tubing Bender Model#TB-130VS, Serial#9119002 which currently lacks the necessary parts for proper machine functionality and operation. The new replacement parts must fit existing Ecrolina Tubing Bender Model#TB- 130VS, Serial#9119002 and interface with all associated inter-connected assemblies, manufactured from OEM specified materials to overall dimensions, connect with existing components that are required to operate this machine within factory specifications, operate as the OEM designed to, hold OEM specified machining tolerance to include repeatability accuracy and other geometric tolerances. Deviation from OEM specifications would result in incorrect components, premature failure of other components, and damage to the machine thus rendering the machine inoperable. OEM parts must be used in order to restore functionality of this machine and are intended to restore this machines production capabilities to OEM factory specification with the goal of ultimately returning this machine to a fully operation status, allowing the Navy to use this machine as a valued piece of production machinery capable of its intended operational function capacity.
