About this file

This document is a justification for urgency in procuring 1980 gallons of Safe D Scale cleaning compound under simplified acquisition procedures between $10,000 to $250,000. The Navy requires delivery by October 27, 2023 to complete ship maintenance and return functionality before undocking. Failure to obtain the material by the required date would delay the overhaul/availability schedule and prevent the ship from undocking as planned, costing the government daily expenses. The need was identified on September 11, 2023 and the request submitted on September 14, 2023. The minimum quantity of 1980 gallons must be obtained by the deadline while any remaining amounts could be procured normally. This justification supports urgency in awarding contract SPMYM2-24-Q-0077 to Delta Products Group or another supplier for 1980 gallons of Safe D Scale to meet the October 27, 2023 delivery date required by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime for ship maintenance.

JUSTIFICATION FOR URGENCY (SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITIONS $10,000 to $250,000) Ref: FAR 13.106

The service or material listed on (Document number) N4523A32761400 is urgent and advertising requirements are precluded for reasons indicated below. If the service/material is not received by the Required Delivery Date (RDD), specific damages to the Navy will result.

1. Suggested Source(s) (complete with addresses, phone and fax numbers):

(1) Delta Products Group 1655 Eastwood Dr. IL, 60506 Phone 888-337-2253 Fax 630-264-9741

(2)___________________________________________________________________________________________________ (3)___________________________________________________________________________________________________

In the spaces above, provide the name of all known suppliers of the required product, preferably a minimum of three manufacturers. (Although the purchasing office maintains a list of sources, it is best to provide sources you know meet your requirements so that valuable time is not wasted in soliciting and evaluating offers from companies who can't meet your needs.

Attach a copy of any market research conducted on potential offerors.)

2. Brief descriptive narrative of service or material required:

Safe D Scale is required for cleaning inaccessible marine fouled piping.

3. Required Delivery Date (RDD): 10/27/2023

4. Describe the resulting damages if the above required delivery date is not met. Explain why the service/material is needed and what will happen if it’s not received by the RDD. (As necessary, describe the impact on overhaul/availability schedules, impact to base support, personnel safety issues, potential environmental damages, etc.) The impact should be expressed as the daily cost (labor, material, etc.) to the government for each day of delay beyond the RDD.

DLA Maritime Puget Sound Urgency Statement 05/21/2018

Ships Undocking will not be able to complete on time. Material is required to return Ship’s system functionality.

5. Lack of prior planning does not support urgency. Please provide a time-line beginning on the date the need was first identified and ending on the date the requisition was submitted to the Purchase Branch. Why is the claimed "urgency" not the result of a lack of advanced planning?

Discovered that material was not ordered on 9/11/2023 and was requested on 9/14/2023.

6. Only our minimum current requirements can be purchased under conditions of urgency. What is the minimum quantity that must be obtained by the RDD? Why can't some of the total required quantity be procured under urgency while procuring the remaining items/services through the normal procurement process?

Minimum quantity is 1980 gallons to accomplish maintenance.

I CERTIFY THAT STATEMENTS CHECKED ABOVE ARE COMPLETE AND CORRECT TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND DO NOT CONTAIN CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. I UNDERSTAND THAT PROCESSING THIS URGENCY STATEMENT COULD PRECLUDE THE FULL ADVERTISEMENT OF THIS PROCUREMENT.
