About this file

This document contains a justification for a sole source federal contract award and the related solicitation. The justification document details that the contracting agency requires an Embosser machine manufactured by CIM- Card Imaging Master to be provided by their authorized dealer with the ability to produce special characters. This sole source justification is required due to the specialized features of the Embosser that no other equipment can meet and ensures compatibility with the agency's existing systems. The related solicitation seeks offers for the supply of this Embosser with a firm fixed price to be delivered to Bremerton, Washington by a specified date. Offerors must follow the submission instructions and registration requirements outlined in order to be considered for this sole source federal contract award.

Description of the item or service required, the estimated cost, and required delivery date.

MS 1500S Embossing machine, including the special characters required delivery date would be TBD.

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.

After research and talking with other shipyards this company is the only one that has the machine with all the characteristics that we need, including the special characters needed to make cable markers.

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.

We are currently using an old school typewriting style machine for these metal cable markers. Its very time consuming on the person who will potentially make a hundred of these cable markers a year.

A patent, copyright, or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is:

These are “direct replacements” parts/components for existing brand name equipment.

_X Other information to support a sole-source buy:

This item is on GSA Advantage from the same company. The reason we are going sole source is because we need the special characters included in the purchase of this machine

I CERTIFY THAT STATEMENTS CHECKED, AND INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE, ARE COMPLETE AND CORRECT TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND DO NOT CONTAIN CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROCESSING OF THIS SOLE-SOURCE JUSTIFICATION PRECLUDES THE USE OF FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION.
