The Department of the Interior's National Park Service (NPS) is seeking to justify a brand-name acquisition for the construction services needed to rehabilitate civil rights structures at the Freedom Riders National Monument in Anniston, Alabama. This document outlines the necessity to utilize Johns Manville thermoplastic membrane roofing products for roofing repairs, essential for maintaining the warranty of the existing roof system. The total estimated cost for the project is $65,867. The justification recognizes that only a sole-source procurement is appropriate due to requirements for specific materials that are compatible with the current roofing, emphasizing that alternatives could void warranties and lead to costly repairs. The contracting process will follow an 8(a) sole-source method, ensuring the pricing is fair and reasonable. No additional market research was conducted as the project's technical team confirmed the necessity of the specified brand. The document concludes by affirming the importance of adhering to brand specifications to protect the investment in the roofing system while remaining open to monitoring market alternatives in future endeavors.
