    Redacted JA.pdf
    The Department of the Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC) is seeking approval for a sole-source purchase from Lakeshore Systems for repair parts for the traveling crane on the USS FRANK CABLE (AS-40). This action falls under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as Lakeshore Systems is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the required parts, and no other suppliers can provide suitable replacements. The crane parts are critical for operational readiness and will be funded by fiscal year 2025 Navy working capital funds. MSC has determined that the anticipated costs are fair and reasonable, and while they historically seek submissions from non-OEM suppliers, no viable alternatives have emerged. This justification leads to a firm-fixed-price order upon receiving a technically acceptable quote from Lakeshore Systems. The MSC does not plan to permit non-OEM competitors for future purchases unless new potential sources arise, ensuring the maintenance of operational integrity for essential maritime equipment. This document underscores the importance of using sole-source contracting for critical ship components while navigating procurement regulations.
