    Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition.pdf
    The U.S. Coast Guard has initiated a justification for using other than full and open competition regarding a procurement for the Medevac IIA Litter, a specialized rescue stretcher. The estimated value of this procurement falls within the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) threshold. The justification cites brand-name specificity, stating that only Lifesaving Systems Corporation (LSC) produces this essential item, which has been approved for use by both the U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Army. Market research indicates that acquiring the technical data from LSC would be uneconomical and that no comparable products meet government requirements, confirming that LSC is the sole source. A combined synopsis/solicitation for the litter will be published on the federal government's contract opportunities website, allowing other interested vendors to submit proposals. The contracting officer has determined potential pricing by referencing current price lists and conducting comparisons with similar industry items. This procurement underscores the need for specialized equipment with confirmed operational approvals, adhering to federal guidelines on direct source procurement.
