The document outlines a justification for a sole-source acquisition of a Toro multiforce mower/snowblower by the USCG Station Alexandria Bay. The rationale for this process stems from the specific operational requirements wherein only this particular stand-on equipment can provide necessary visibility while performing snow removal and maintain search and rescue readiness during winter months. The equipment's unique attributes prevent the use of any competing models, as alternatives are largely seated options that do not offer the visibility height needed for safety and effective operation in tight spaces. Market research confirmed that the Toro multiforce can only be purchased through its dealer network, with Burville Power Equipment identified as the preferred dealer due to its familiarity with station needs and additional service offerings, such as pick-up for repairs. The justification highlights that no alternative models meet the functional and size constraints required by the station, affirming the necessity of this specific purchase approach. There are currently no planned actions to enhance competition in future acquisitions.
