Failure to comply with packaging requirements will result in rejection and nonpayment. Delivery shall be F.O.B. Destination to USCG Surface Forces Logistics Center, Baltimore MD. THIS IS A SOLE SOURCE REQUEST FOR QUOTE AND IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE OEM TRAC REGULATOR CO. IS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT CAN SUPPLY THE PROPER PARTS The Ship Service Air Reducing Valve is for the ship service air system onboard the 420 foot Icebreaker Healy which reduces the air pressure to a safe amount. The CPP Hydraulic Oil Cooler Temperature Regulating Valve regulates the oil temperature for the Controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP) oil system onboard the 378 foot WHEC. If either of these valves malfunctions, the subsequent system it regulates/reduces would not operate correctly. Consequently, the mission of the 420 foot Icebreaker Healy and the 378 foot WHEC will be severely degraded. These Valves are for warehouse stock and not for immediate installation. It would be cost prohibitive to retrofit the entire 378 WHEC fleet and the 420 Icebreaker Healy to accommodate another manufacturers' valves. Since the technical data required to make a fair and reasonable assessment of equal or alternate equipment that could meet the Coast Guard's performance, fit and function requirements for this procurement is unavailable, Trac Regulator Co. Inc. is the only manufacturer that can guarantee interchangeability and configuration of these valves. Therefore, we are restricted to and must rely solely upon Trac Regulator Co. Inc. to satisfy the current acquisition need. Any attempt to manufacture or repair these valves without Trac Regulator Co. Inc. parts and without access to Trac Regulator Co. Inc. manufacturing drawings, specifications, tolerances/parameters, test procedures and other relevant information, could cause equipment failure and subsequent failure to meet unit mission requirements.
