About this file

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for the purchase of various engine parts for 20' and 22' Coastal Buoy Launches (CBL) assets. The procurement restricts competition under FAR 12.102(a) and FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1, utilizing a brand name justification because the parts are manufactured exclusively by Volvo Penta of the Americas Inc (OEM) and technical data for assessing equal or alternate equipment is unavailable. The parts are critical for proper asset operation, and any attempt to manufacture replacements without proper manufacturing drawings, specifications, tolerances, parameters, and test procedures could result in major mission degradation. The suggested source is Johnson & Towers LLC, located at 500 Wilson Point Road, Baltimore, MD 21220-4297 (UEI: Q7LMGN36FAN8).

The procurement is valued over the micro-purchase threshold but at or below the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT). The contracting officer determined fair and reasonable pricing through market research, comparison of proposed prices with prices found reasonable on previous purchases, and comparison with similar items in related industries. The technical and requirements point of contact, Steven A. Bolen, signed the document on June 12, 2026, and the contracting officer, Bryan Anthony Duffey, signed on June 17, 2026, authorizing the sole-source acquisition of OEM-brand Volvo Penta engine parts.
