Estimated Value of Procurement: TBD 4. Recommended Sources: THALES COMMUNICATIONS INC. 5. Reason for Sole Source/Limited Sources: ( X ) Only one source (unique capabilities) ( ) Proprietary drawings, specifications, and/or engineering data, patents, copyrights ( ) Brand Name essential to the Government?s needs. ( ) Standardization Program supported by Agency Head ( ) Determination and Findings (D&F). ( ) Unusual and Compelling Urgency (limited sources) Briefly Explain: 1. FAR 6.302 (a)(2)(ii), pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), permits contracting for supplies or services when the supplies or services required by the agency are deemed available only from the original source(s) for the continued support of a major system or highly specialized equipment. This is a last buy of parts from the OEM as they have discontinued support of the CEJD-MSR Ikw TRANSMITTER. These parts will be used to support the system until recapitalization. 2. In accordance with FAR 10.001(a)(3) (i) the USCG conducted a market research utilizing the World Wide Web, Thomas Register of American Manufacturers and GSA Supply Schedules, in order to locate as many capable sources of supply for these piece parts as possible. The only vendor located is the OEM, THALES COMMUNICATIONS INC. These subassemblies are only manufactured by the OEM, THALES COMMUNICATIONS INC. 6. Impact to the Government if not awarded in accordance with the above: All parts must be physically the same form, fit and function as the already supported piece parts. This is mandatory in order to maintain parts already purchased and any new parts to be purchased. Any deviation from this standard will significantly increase the USCG cost for support and will greatly impact the USCG?s ability to support the original equipment used. If the USCG is no longer able to support the original equipment, this will force the USCG to recapitalize the entire equipment population 7. Point of Contact: WALTER E.
