    This memorandum outlines the justification for utilizing other than full and open competition for an acquisition under the simplified acquisition threshold, specifically for procuring parts from EMS Development Corporation. The purchase is for critical ship equipment related to the Advanced Degaussing System, required by the Military Sealift Command (MSC) by July 30, 2025. The reasoning for single-source solicitation includes proprietary rights held by EMS Development Corporation over the necessary materials and the urgency of the acquisition due to its significance for ship safety. MSC’s policy favors using Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts to mitigate risks associated with equipment failure. Consequently, the memorandum substantiates the need for exclusive procurement from a singular source, emphasizing the critical nature of the item and adherence to regulatory policies to ensure operational efficiency and safety in naval operations. The anticipated dollar value of the procurement remains unspecified.
