    This memorandum outlines the justification for using other than full and open competition to procure a Main Diesel Generator Pedestal Bearing from a sole source, Renk USA, under the simplified acquisition threshold. According to FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), this approach is deemed necessary due to the exclusive proprietary rights held by Renk USA as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The anticipated procurement value is $56,649.07, with a delivery date set for September 30, 2025. Key reasons for limiting competition include: the critical nature of the bearing for ship operations that could jeopardize safety if failed, and the necessity for standardized parts to ensure compatibility with existing equipment aboard T-AKE Class vessels. Renk has exclusive access to designs and technical manuals essential for maintaining the equipment, highlighting the importance of using proprietary parts for effective service and maintenance. The memorandum emphasizes the urgency and specificity of the requirement, underlining Renk USA's unique capability to fulfill this need without competition. This procurement aligns with governmental standards for urgent and essential ship equipment acquisition.
