Sole Source Justification This equipment is proprietary to Marel Seattle, Inc. Marel Seattle, Inc. is the only known source of supply. The NEFOP currently utilizes Marel M1100 motion-compensating marine platform scales. The mission of the NEFOP is to collect accurate data on commercial fishing vessels to be used for fisheries management. Data collected by these scales are part of the observer database administered and maintained by the Northeast Fishers Science Center. It is critical that all observers collect data from the same scales and with the same calibration standards to maintain data integrity. It is not possible to substitute for this item. Consistent and annual certification and calibration of these scales is an integral component of the quality assurance procedures maintained by the NEFOP. Maintaining data continuity and precision is mission critical to the NEFOP. These power supplies have been built to replace the non-Bluetooth enabled power supplies specifically for Marel M1100 scales. MareI Seattle, Inc. is the sole manufacturer and vendor of the MareI M1100 motion-compensating marine platform scales and Marel M1100 power supply with built-in Bluetooth Module; there are no resellers. Marel Seattle, Inc. is the only vendor that can repair damaged M1100 scales, replace damaged parts and install new power supplies with built-in Bluetooth Module. Marel Seattle, Inc. is the only vendor that can guarantee the certification and calibration of the M1100 scales and is the only vendor capable of providing these services.
