The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard intends to issue a sole source solicitation and contract to Spectronics Corporation (Cage 20772). The required pipe freezing units must be compatible in all aspects (form,fit, and function) with the existing system currently in use. These specific pip freezing units have been shown to meet all safety standards for use in industrial environments including at naval shipyards. Any change in design would require additional formal testing. This testing would negatively effect fleet wide avalibilities. Tooling specifically designed to fit spectronics refridgeration units has been manufactured to ensure the level of acuracy, safety, and reliability required to use for nuclear requirements. Spectronics is the only viable source for these refridgeration units. These direct replacement components are 100% interchangable with the system of units already in place at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. The equipment being procured is specific to Spectronics Corporation, therefore they are the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement. A determination of the government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received would normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining weaher to conduct a competative procurement.
