    This memorandum outlines the justification for using other than full and open competition for an acquisition under the simplified acquisition threshold, specifically for the USNS NEWPORT project. It states that A&J Manufacturing Company is the sole source capable of supplying the necessary habitability replacement parts due to proprietary rights and critical ship equipment status. The required delivery date is set for July 3, 2025, with a performance period extending from August 18 to November 21, 2025. The components sought are essential for maintaining ship operations and conforming to various safety standards. The memorandum emphasizes the urgency of the procurement, reflecting the need to prevent potential operational hazards and ensure compatibility with existing equipment configurations. Additionally, the document affirms that non-OEM replacements would not meet technical or regulatory requirements, reinforcing the unique position of the A&J Manufacturing Company as the approved supplier. Overall, the memorandum serves to document the rationale behind limiting the competitive process in favor of a singular source procurement, highlighting both urgency and essential compatibility with existing equipment.
