42--MK 25 Underwater Breathing Apparatus(UBA) spare and repair parts and equipment.

FOR PROCUREMENT OF MK 25 MOD 2 UNDERWATER BREATHING APPARATUS AND COMPONENTS The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City (NSWC PC) intends to award on a sole source basis a firm-fixed price contract to Draeger Safety, 101 Technology Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15275-1005 to provide MK 25 MOD 2 Underwater Breathing Apparatus (UBA) and associated equipment. This procurement is sole source for the following reasons. Draeger Safety is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the MK 25 MOD2 UBA. As the OEM, only Draeger Safety can accurately provide all of the spare and replacement parts for the MK 25 MOD 2 UBA. Procuring these spare parts from another company would run the risk of incompatibility of components when maintaining and repairing the MK 25 MOD 2. Furthermore, the MK 25 MOD 2 is a NAVSEA certified diving life support system (DLSS). The components and raw materials that make up the system fall within the scope of certification boundaries. Substitution of similar materials and components are not authorized without the expressed permission of NAVSEA 00C4 and requires an approved departure from the specification. In summary, Draeger Safety is the only responsible source due to their unique qualifications as sole manufacturer of the MK25 MOD 2 UBA. There are no other companies that manufacture this critical life support equipment.
