The NSWC PCD Code 1021 has a requirement to acquire a Puroflux Cooling Tower Separator Package. �This purchase is not suitable for full and open competition for the following reasons. �This pump package has already been designed and tested to ensure compatibility with the Marley cooling tower that it will be attached to.� If another pump manufacturer were to provide a pump package for the cooling tower, they would be required to invest the engineering effort required to ensure that the pumps are compatible with the Marley system. �The attached estimate indicates an engineering cost of approximately $4,500 in addition to the cost of the system itself. �The Puroflux system has already been designed and tested to ensure compatibility with the Marley cooling tower.� Puroflux systems are provided solely by their distributor O�Brien Equipment, Inc. in the geographic area of NSA Panama City. �As such, the government does not expect significant savings through competition and it is more advantageous to the Government to award on a sole source basis to O�Brien Equipment, Inc. for the items listed in paragraph 3 above. 5. A determination by the ordering activity contracting officer that the order represents the best value consistent with FAR 13.106-1(b).
