- Description
- Contract specialist conducted market research using online search. Keywords "rudder bearing seal" and "seal ring, split" were used to determine if AbilityOne, Unicor, NIB and GSA Advantage could support the requirement. All searches came back with zero results or results not comparable to requirement. An identical keyword search was also conducted using Google search engine with few useful results. Instead, multiple Google results pointed to other sole source justifications (N3904018P0016, SPMYM218Q3692, NMAN7200-16-01105) citing Wartsila Defense Incorporated (Wartsila) for similar requirements. A sole source justification was included in the procurement package from the requiring activity. The company provided was Wartsila, a sole source distributer/manufacturer of the requested supplies. Contained in the justification was a Work Specification Package that included a technical manual for item number 562-11-001 (Rudder Bearing Seal and Rudderstock Seal; repair). Per TPPC-DDG84- MARMCN19-CN01 section 1.3, Wartsila is listed as the manufacturer for all parts in this requirement. Additionally, more recent procurements (August 2018) have found similar results, confirming that Wartsila is the sole source provider for these supplies. This has been accompanied by a signed letter from Wartsila's General Sales Manager detailing that companies are not authorized to sell or represent their products. Contract Specialist concluded this is a commercial product requirement referencing FAR 2.101 definitions (Commercial item). Based on market research conducted and sole source justification, it is clear Wartsila is the only company to offer this product to both Government and civilian customers. For this acquisition, firm fixed price contract with NAICS 336611 (SBA size 1,250 employees) will be awarded.
