    This memorandum outlines the justification for using other than full and open competition for a procurement under the simplified acquisition threshold concerning the USNS Medgar Evers. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) permits soliciting from a single source when specific conditions justify such action, including urgency, exclusive licensing, or brand name requirements. In this case, the item needed is a repair kit for a mix/ diverter valve from IMECO Inc., specifically required for the cargo refrigeration plant. The delivery is critical by November 25, 2024, to maintain the vessel's operational capacity. The justification includes that the equipment is essential for critical ship operations, and any delay could result in mission disruptions. The competing alternative parts have not been evaluated adequately due to a lack of technical data, thus necessitating procurement solely from the OEM, confirmed by an exclusive licensing agreement. Factors such as the urgency of the situation and reliance on specified standardized parts validate this procurement method, emphasizing its importance for operational integrity and compliance.
