Manufactured by GOTAR Technologies Inc., this compound is categorized under NSN 6850015506524 and has an associated hazardous classification as an acid. It is packaged in a 275-gallon container and is designated for use in Shop 56 Pipefitters within the federal government.

    This document presents a Justification for Sole Source procurement, referencing FAR 13.106(b). It identifies Adelaide Marine Services, the U.S. distributor for GOTAR Technologies, as the sole source for eight units of a scale removing compound due to the absence of substitutes. The proposed compound is necessary for compatibility with existing systems, where other descaling agents are not authorized. The justification elaborates that GOTAR-D is a proprietary formula, and no alternative flushing mediums that meet system requirements are available. The document confirms that limited competition is necessary under the circumstances, emphasizing the unique characteristics of the requested material that restrict other sources. A certification statement verifies the accuracy of the provided details. The document is crucial for justifying the exclusive procurement of specialized materials essential for operational efficiency.
    The document serves as an amendment to a federal solicitation regarding the procurement of a chemical product, specifically the GOTAR-D descale agent. Key changes include an extension of the solicitation due date from September 13, 2024, to September 20, 2024, a shift from a 100% HUBZone to a 100% Small Business set-aside, and the addition of a sole source specification for the product. It emphasizes that any bids for products classified as "equal" must be accompanied by manufacturer specifications to be deemed responsive. Furthermore, it outlines several mandatory clauses to be adhered to by the contractor, covering compliance with federal regulations relevant to small businesses and procurement processes. The document underscores the government's aim to ensure participation from small business entities while maintaining specific procurement standards. This highlights a broader commitment to supporting small businesses in federal contracting while adhering to legal requirements.
