Sole Source to Rosemount Inc for annual maintenance, calibration, linearization, and recertification of up to (10) Emerson model MLT analyzers and up to (14) Xstream model analyzers

This procurement is a Sole Source to Rosemount Inc for annual maintenance, calibration, linearization, and recertification of up to (10) Emerson model MLT analyzers and up to (14) Xstream model analyzers per the attached justification. 

• The Navy Experimental Diving Unit (NEDU) currently has a requirement for annual maintenance, calibration, linearization, and recertification of up to (10) Emerson model MLT analyzers and up to (14) Xstream model analyzers at NEDU. As the manufacturer of the instrument, ROSEMOUNT, Inc. (subsidiary: EMERSON LLLP) is the only company offering service and recertification of the equipment. To use another company to conduct recertification on this equipment might compromise their overall performance. Use of another vendor may change or introduce new parameters that may be harmful to all diving systems tested and maintained at NEDU, and negatively affect the diving and life support systems these instruments are vital components of. Therefore, it is imperative that this particular vendor be used to limit the risk to life and health of the US Navy Divers who depend on this instrument. Therefore, it is in the Government’s best interest to award on a sole source basis to ROSEMOUNT, Inc. See attached justification.
