    The memorandum outlines the justification for using other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for requisition 25DMD0023. The acquisition involves a 30-foot Contender Tournament center console vessel equipped with twin 300HP Yamaha engines, Garmin electronics, and an aluminum trailer. The document citing FAR regulations explains the need for soliciting only one source, specifically noting brand-name specifications due to the Marine Training Branch's long-term use of Contender boats, which ensures consistency in training. The proposed vessel's durability has been proven over 18 years, and the familiarity with Contender systems by existing technicians aids in maintenance and repairs, thereby ensuring operational efficiency and safety. The memorandum emphasizes that these factors are critical for the effective training of personnel in harsh marine conditions, justifying the non-competitive procurement approach. The document concludes with certifications from the technical representative and the contracting officer affirming the accuracy of the provided details.
