    This document provides a justification for limiting a government procurement process to a sole source under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The request emphasizes the need for a specific item—ten COMPASS, MAGNETIC units—deemed critical for the safe navigation of a Coast Guard vessel. The original equipment manufacturer (OEM), RITCHIE E S and SONS INC, is the only source capable of supplying parts that conform to the necessary specifications because the required technical data for alternatives is not available, posing risks to operational integrity. Efforts were made to research potential vendors; however, no viable alternatives could be identified without the proprietary information held by the OEM. The document outlines authorities under U.S. law that allow for such procurement actions and emphasizes ongoing market research to explore options for future acquisitions. The justification concludes with the signatures of the customer representative and contracting officer, affirming the request's legitimacy and necessity within regulations governing federal procurements.
