Subj: JUSTIFICATION FOR URGENT ACQUISITION

Ref: (a) Procurement Request No: TBD

(b) Federal Acquisition Regulation 18.104

1. URGENCY: This justification is provided to support the processing of reference (a) on an urgent basis (i.e., more quickly than the routine cycle timeframes of 20 days for requirements less than $25,000 and 30 days for requirements greater than $25,000 but less than $100,000. Processing of a requirement on an urgent basis may allow the soliciting from a single source if Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances deem only one source reasonably available. This justification is based on the following facts:

17 September 2026 date on which the requirement was first identified.

21 September 2026 is the date on which the requirement was submitted to the contracting department.

26 October 2026 is the required delivery date as indicated on the requisition.

X Explanation of the special circumstances and conditions that exist validating the requirement as "urgent”.

The requirement is urgent because it supports an emerging operational need that was identified on a last-minute basis and cannot be deferred without affecting mission execution. MESG-2 has received tasking from higher echelon to provide four (4) wooden ramps for attachment to a C-17 aircraft, complete with all overlap boards, fasteners, and shoring sections in support of the active mission.

X How this requirement will impact your mission (i.e., the specific harm that would result) if you do not receive the material or service by the required delivery date.

MESG-2 is currently unable to deploy 40-foot patrol boats to forward combatant commands. Delays in material receipt from Coastal Craft Repair, LLC will directly delay the shipment of combatant craft to the forward-deployed location in support of the active mission.

X Estimated production lead time for the item (how long will it take the contractor to produce the item or complete the service once the contract is awarded).

The required items have a twenty (20) business day ARO delivery time.

The following firms were contacted and have indicated that they cannot provide an item that will meet the needs of the Government.

This is a sole source requirement to Coastal Craft Repair, LLC due to an emergent and critical need.

Coastal Craft Repair, LLC has the required drawings and have the capability of providing the required items as needed. Any further delay in seeking an alternate vendor would create unacceptable operational risk.
