This action will award a sole source purchase order 2G Engineering, LLC, 2752 Capitol Drive Suite 103, Sun Prairie, Wisconsin to acquire 2G Engineering rotary actuators, associated cabling, and a custom control panel (plus the engineering design services to design the panel) to provide an upgrade of the capability of the unmanned diving operations inside the unmanned hyperbaric chambers at NEDU, per attached clauses and justification as follows:

1. Two (2) 2000 Series High Torque Rotary Actuators, Custom Shaft with ¼ inch through hole, Black Anodized Aluminum, Analog Control, 6-pin micro connector, product # 000RHT-X1856-ALK-6M
2. One (1) Navy Experimental Diving Unit Dual Actuator Control Panel, product # G000257
3. Two (2) 30 foot whips, MCIL6F with locking collar to unterminated wires, product # G000258
4. Shipping for all items to NEDU, 321 Bullfinch Road, Panama City, FL 32407

This acquisition is conducted under FAR 6.302-1, 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). The equipment is being
acquired as new equipment to meet testing requirements of unmanned diving operations at
NEDU. Manipulation of certain components of diving equipment while testing under pressure is
critical for collection of the data points required to fulfill NAVSEA testing requirements. The 2G
Engineering, LLC system requested is the only equipment compatible with the current installed
hardware and software control systems. In summary, using alternate equipment would prove
costly in time and dollars to the government and to the mission. Use of another system may
change or introduce new parameters that may be harmful to all diving systems tested and
maintained at NEDU. Therefore, it is imperative that this particular brand of equipment is
purchased.
