Additional Notes
This acquisition is justified as a sole source to Allied Systems Company because the Military Sealift Command (MSC) mandates the use of OEM parts to prevent damage, personal injury, and to maintain warranties. Allied Systems Company retains proprietary rights to design drawings and original parts, and MSC lacks the technical information to reverse engineer or manufacture alternatives. Using non-OEM parts would compromise reliability and effectiveness. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).
