SOLICITATION ATTACHMENT- JOTFOC.pdf

This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b).

The procurement requisition number is 2126406Y6175K87002, with an estimated total value over the Micro-Purchase Threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The Coast Guard seeks an overhaul of a COGID 20V4000 series MTU engine for the CGC PAUL CLARK during FY26, requiring genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) MTU parts. The justification cites FAR 5.102(a)(6), FAR 11.105, and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) as authority, with the primary justification being a brand name requirement—the particular brand name, product, or feature is essential to the Government's requirements, and market research indicates other companies' similar products or products lacking this particular feature do not meet the agency's needs. The overhaul must use genuine MTU parts; failure to do so raises efficiency and risk concerns for equipment or operations. Non-genuine components and their use are prohibited by SFLC-PBPL QL3 Specification (ENCL 1).

Five suggested sources have been identified: MTU America (OEM) in Novi, Michigan; Pacific Power Group in St. Kits; Johnson & Towers in Port Jefferson; FDDA in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; and WW Williams in Dublin, Ohio. The contracting officer employed comparison of proposed price with prices from previous purchases and current price lists as fair and reasonable price determination methods. The document was signed by LCDR Marie De Visser (Project Manager) on 12/03/2025 and the Contracting Officer Carter Shannon Robyn on 03/20/2026.
