This memorandum outlines the justification for utilizing other than full and open competition for a procurement under the simplified acquisition threshold, specifically for services related to saltwater treatment. The contracting officer has determined that only one source, Xylem / EVOQUA WATER TECHNOLOGIES LLC, is reasonably available due to proprietary rights and exclusive licensing agreements. The specific procurement involves the Evoqua SB2K Gen 2 Power Supply/Controller, essential for the Trans alt Chloropac Panel Consolidation and Relocation project, which requires adherence to strict specifications verified by the Military Sealift Command (MSC), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG). The document highlights the critical need for standardization and compatibility with existing equipment, as the MSC lacks manufacturing and technical data necessary to evaluate non-OEM components. This limits the procurement options to the specified brand and model from the designated authorized distributor, ensuring continuity and reliability in mission-critical operations.
