3010 Actuator Brand Name OEM NU-TORQUE

Justification for Urgency (Simplified Acquisitions)

This document justifies an urgent, simplified acquisition for an electric actuator for a damper valve, specifically the NUTORQUE Model MS12Q. The urgency stems from fire damage onboard that significantly impacted ventilation components. During an attempted installation, it was discovered that the supplied material did not match onboard systems, necessitating the procurement of the specified NUTORQUE model.

• Electric actuator for damper valve, NUTORQUE Model MS12Q.

• Required Delivery Date (RDD) is specified (redacted).

• Minimum quantity required is 2 EA for one-for-one replacement.

• The procurement is under the "Urgency (Precluding Synopsizing)" category with a threshold up to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

• The document indicates a limited source justification, stating the actuator meets the form, fit, and function to replace failed components on installed Titanium Valves, specifically a Bray Valve, as a result of ship alterations.

• This is a justification for a sole source or limited source procurement, precluding full and open competition.

• Not applicable as this is a justification for urgent, limited source procurement.

• Failure to restore the Halon Fire Protection (HFP) system for the flammable liquid storeroom will limit operation.

• The document references FAR 5.101(a)(2), FAR 13.106, and DON SAP Guide.

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document serves as a Brand Name Justification for a sole source procurement. It details the specific item required and provides the rationale for restricting competition.

• Item: NUTORQUE Electric Actuator, Model MS05Q, SPEC MIL-M-17059, P/N: 0511-25-S507-100.
• Manufacturer: CURTISS-WRIGHT
• Manufacturer POC: BRAIN O'CONNOR, (631) 396-4447
• Manufacturer Address: 1966 Broadhallow RD, Farmingdale, NY 11735-1726
• Justification for Brand Name: The actuator is a direct replacement for a failed component in the fire main system, essential for ship safety. Use of a substitute actuator could lead to electrical connection mismatches, motor capacity issues, and damage to the fire main systems. The OEM (Curtiss-Wright Flow Control) has asserted proprietary data/information on the relevant drawings (DWG 63600-E0500 Rev T), which were solely developed and funded by the OEM. Technical data is available to the government with limited purpose and cannot be reproduced for manufacturing by others. SRF-JRMC technical requirements also mandate adherence to specifications prescribed on OEM/NAVSEA DWG 63600-E0500 Rev T and NAVSEA Systems Technical Manual; APLs 61A190082.
• Government Certification: The requested material represents the minimum requirements of the government.

This document indicates that the procurement is restricted to a specific brand name (NUTORQUE Electric Actuator, Model MS05Q) due to technical compatibility and proprietary data restrictions. Bidders seeking to respond to the associated opportunity should note that competition is precluded, and the focus is on obtaining the specified item from the authorized source or its approved distributor.

Solicitation / RFP / RFQ

This document is a Justification for Urgency (Simplified Acquisitions) for an electric actuator for a damper valve, NUTORQUE Model MS12Q. The procurement is urgent due to fire damage onboard that affected ventilation components. During an attempted installation, it was discovered that the material from the supply system did not match onboard systems, necessitating the NUTORQUE Model.

• Electric actuator for damper valve, NUTORQUE Model MS12Q.

• Required Delivery Date (RDD) is specified but redacted.

• Minimum current requirement is 2 EA for one-for-one replacement.

• Threshold is $15,000 to SAT (Simplified Acquisition Threshold).

• The document indicates a limited source justification, stating the actuator meets the same form, fit, and function to replace/repair failed components on installed Titanium Valves, specifically a Bray Valve, as a result of ship alterations SCD 81157.

• This document serves as a justification for urgency and limited source procurement, implying a non-competitive or restricted process.

• Not specified, but the justification for urgency and limited source suggests it may not be a full and open competition.
