- Description
- Announcement Number: 1305M220Q01194 Project Title: Replacement Parts for Appleton Crane System The US Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Eastern Region Acquisition Division, Simplified Acquisition Branch intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Appleton Marine Inc., using the procedures in FAR Part 13, to provide replacement/repair parts for a much larger Appleton designed crane system.� The tolerances and functional design of how these replacement components interact within the greater system (crane) is the intellectual property of Appleton Marine Inc. Replacement of these parts with any other parts will require modification to the mounting and to the mounting of the parts that connect to and interact with this rotary union. Any modification of the certified lifting device that these pieces are a part of will require approval of Appleton Marine Inc. and the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), which will cause additional cost and down time.� It is imperative to have this system operating correctly and accurately and thus, it is necessary to procure replacement parts that are compatible in all aspects (form, fit, and function) with existing systems or equipment and only from a source that is uniquely qualified to meet the requirement.� Appleton Marine Inc. is the sole provider of the replacement/repair parts. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), Only one responsible source. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) for this acquisition is 333923, Overhead Traveling Crane, Hoist and Monorail System Manufacturing with a business size standard of 1,250 employees. This is not a solicitation for competitive quotes, nor will one be posted on the Contract Opportunities website. The determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.� However, if any interested party believes that it is capable of meeting the requirements, and in an effort to comply with the requirements outlined in FAR 5.102, a firm may request an electronic copy of the solicitation from the Contract Specialist, Randall Chatfield, randall.chatfield@noaa.gov All electronic correspondence shall have the subject line read:� Announcement Number: 1305M220Q01194. All responsible sources may submit a Capability Statement and/or a quote in accordance with the solicitation, which shall be considered by the agency if received on or before 12:00 PM EST on July 07, 2020.� The Capability Statement must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NOAA to determine if the party can meet all of the requirements.� The solicitation will remain open from June 22, 2020 to July 07, 2020.
