    Description

    The Department of Homeland Security, specifically the U.S. Coast Guard, is seeking quotations for the procurement of 15 Mercury Sterndrives, which are critical components for the Coast Guard's 32’ TPSB vessels. The requirement is for the Bravo I XR Drive 1.50:1 Sterndrive, which must be individually packaged according to military standards and delivered by June 13, 2025. This procurement is justified as a sole source due to the unique characteristics of the Sterndrives, which limit availability to Mercury Marine, and the Coast Guard's lack of necessary manufacturing data to source alternatives. Interested vendors must ensure they are registered in SAM.gov and submit their quotes to Yannick Kassi by May 27, 2025, with the total estimated procurement amount being $238,485.

    The document outlines a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the procurement of 15 Mercury Sterndrives essential for the U.S. Coast Guard's 32’ TPSB vessels. The estimated amount for this procurement is $238,485, and the justification relies on the unique characteristics of the Sterndrives that limit availability to a sole source, specifically Mercury Marine. The Coast Guard lacks the necessary manufacturing data, technical drawings, and specifications to facilitate other suppliers. Despite market research efforts via internet searches and GSA Advantage, only Hidden Harbour Marine, the confirmed distributor, can provide the required products. The proprietary nature of the manufacturing data has created barriers for competition, and the document also outlines potential future actions to enhance sourcing capabilities. The purpose of this report is to substantiate the need for sole sourcing due to the specific requirements and unique attributes of the Sterndrives, ensuring operational efficiency for the Coast Guard's vessels.
