This memorandum, dated December 22, 2025, justifies the use of other than full and open competition for an acquisition under the simplified acquisition threshold. The acquisition is for various brand-name parts (Ajax, Bunn, Cissell, Edro, Follet, Foranta, Horbart, Hiller, Insinger, Maytag, MGR, Wells) required to repair laundry and galley equipment on the USNS MERCY by February 13, 2026. The determination to limit competition is based on several factors: the manufacturers' proprietary rights over their designs, the need to maintain OEM warranties, standardization initiatives requiring specific makes/models, and the necessity for exact form, fit, and function compatibility with existing critical ship equipment. The specified vendors (DW Boyd, Aantilia LLC, and The Source) are chosen due to their unique knowledge and access to technical information and drawings, which are essential for procuring correct parts without full part numbers or data plates, ensuring the vessel's mission capability.
