    016779696 Injector Assembly F JOTFOC.pdf
    The document outlines a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for purchasing ten Injector Assemblies for the Coast Guard’s LRI-2 vessel, asserting that these parts can only be sourced from one specific provider—Cummins Inc. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1), emphasizing that no other supplies will satisfy the agency's requirements due to the proprietary nature of the injector assemblies. The technical data for these components is controlled by Cummins, which possesses the necessary drawings and specifications. The failure of such critical components could result in significant operational hazards. Market research was conducted through various platforms, but no alternatives were found, confirming Cummins as the unique source. Efforts to enhance competition in future acquisitions will include ongoing market research to identify potential suppliers capable of providing the necessary technical information. The stated budget for this acquisition is $15,648.20. This document reflects procedural compliance within federal procurement, highlighting the importance of justifications when limiting competitive bidding to ensure accountability and efficacy within government spending. Overall, the justification underscores the essential nature of sole-source procurement in maintaining operational safety for the Coast Guard.

    The document is a justification for a sole source acquisition, detailing why only one vendor, Cummins Inc., can supply the Injector Assembly, a critical component for the LRI-2 vessel's fuel system. The contracting officer, citing 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1), establishes that no alternatives will meet the government’s requirements, emphasizing the assembly's unique characteristics and the potential operational hazards of failure. Efforts for market research included internet searches and reviewing past purchases, yet only Cummins possesses the proprietary technical data necessary for production, which was not acquired by the U.S. Coast Guard. The document also outlines future steps to broaden competition by further market research to identify additional vendors who can provide the needed technical information. The summary concludes with the signatory details of both the customer and contracting officer, reinforcing the official nature of the document as part of federal procurement processes.
