    This memorandum details the decision to utilize a non-competitive procurement process for the servicing of the Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) aboard the USNS Washington Chambers. Citing Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1, it stipulates that the contracting officer may solicit bids from only one source due to specific circumstances such as urgency and proprietary rights. Kato Engineering Inc. is identified as the sole source for this service, which is critical to ensuring the safe operation of the generator and, by extension, the ship's safety. The servicing period is set between November 20 and December 5, 2024. The memorandum also outlines supporting reasons for this sole-source determination, such as restrictions by standardization initiatives and the necessity to use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts. The EDG maintenance is mandated to be performed by either the OEM or approved representatives to comply with regulatory standards from the American Bureau of Shipping and the US Coast Guard. The document emphasizes the importance of adhering to these procurement guidelines to mitigate risks associated with using non-OEM services or parts, further underscoring the critical nature of the equipment involved.
