This document is a "One Source/Brand Name Justification" (NTE SAT) in accordance with FAR 12.102(a). It outlines the rationale for restricting competition to a single source for specific materials required for the fabrication of stowage of accommodation ladder handrail on the USS SHOUP (DDG-86).

This document is relevant to potential bidders as it indicates that the procurement for these specific parts will be restricted to AVIBANK MFG., INC. (CAGE: 84256). The justification states that AVIBANK MFG., INC. controls the design, characteristics, and production of the item through its engineering drawings and specifications, which are proprietary.
