Description
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) is soliciting a sole source procurement for a Ross Model DPM-2 Double Planetary Mixer System from Charles Ross and Son Company. The mixer is required to replace the current Ross Mixer, which needs replacement. The justification for the sole source procurement is based on the fact that Charles Ross and Son Company holds multiple patents pertinent to the functionality of the planetary mixer, and no other companies were found to manufacture a comparable mixer. The key aspects of the job include:
* Purchasing a Ross Model DPM-2 Double Planetary Mixer System
* Replacing the current Ross Mixer
* The mixer is required for a specific application, and the manufacturer holds proprietary rights and patents
* The procurement is being made under the authority of FAR Part 13.106-1(b)
