This memo does not authorize acquisition for other requirements. This purchase will be funded with fiscal year 2020 Operation and Maintenance, Navy (OMN) funds. 4. Identification of the justification rationale and, if applicable, a demonstration of the proposed contractor’s unique qualifications to provide the required supply or service. 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), 10 U.S.C. 2304(d)(1)(B). Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B). The equipment is being purchased and modified to meet testing requirements of unmanned diving operations at NEDU. Certain diving equipment requires testing using high pressure gasses, and this gas booster is a critical part of the gas supply system for Experimental Diving Facility hyperbaric chambers. As the Original Equipment Manufacturer, Hydraulics International Incorporated is the ONLY facility with the qualifications to perform these upgrades while maintaining overall system integrity. In summary, using an alternate vendor would prove costly in time and dollars to the government and to the mission. Use of another vendor may change or introduce new parameters that may be harmful to all diving systems tested and maintained at NEDU. Therefore, it is imperative that this particular vendor be used to perform the necessary modifications to this equipment. As such, the Government does not expect significant savings through competition and does expects significant and unacceptable delays that will negatively impact this requirement. Therefore, it is in the Governments’ best interest to award on a sole source basis to Hydraulics International, Inc. 5. A determination by the ordering activity contracting officer that the order represents the best value consistent with FAR 13.106-1(b).
