    Attachment 2- JA_Redacted.pdf
    The United States Coast Guard (USCG) is seeking approval for a sole-source acquisition of eStrip™M GPX Type VII Corn Starch-g-Acrylic blast media from Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) through its authorized distributor, Midvale Industries. This justification aligns with FAR 6.302-1(c), which allows for contracts limited to one responsible source when no other supplies can meet the agency's needs. The Type VII blast media is essential for stripping coatings from various substrates without damaging them and replaces traditional hazardous chemical and plastic media. Extensive market research verified the absence of alternative suppliers, as ADM owns the technical specifications necessary for manufacturing this item. The USCG lacks the rights to develop a sufficient purchase description for open competition or to reverse-engineer the product. Thus, future efforts to enhance competition may be limited due to the proprietary nature of the required technical data. This acquisition underscores the importance of compliance with federal regulations while emphasizing operational efficacy in support of military needs.
