- JUSTIFICATION AND APPROVAL FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION 1.Contracting Agency: Department of Veterans Affairs, San Diego Regional Office 377. 2.Nature and/or Description of Action: Notice of Other Than Full and Open competition for the procurement of Chapter 31 Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Services. 3.Description of Supplies or Services: Chapter 31 Education and Vocational Services having an estimated value of $382,200. 4.Statutory Authority: The services are being procured under the authority of 38 U.S.C. 8127(c), FAR 6.302-5 and VAAR 819.7007. 38 U.S.C. 8127(c) expressly authorizes the use of noncompetitive procedures for small business concerns owned and controlled by veterans with service-connected disabilities. FAR 13.5, Test Program for Certain Commercial Items, are also used pursuant to Section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996. 5.Demonstration of contractor unique qualifications: The requested Chapter 31 Education and Vocational Services are to meet the immediate needs of veterans until a new national services contract can be procured. An SDVOSB with experience and acceptable performance from the prior national contract is best suited to meet the need based on having approved personnel in place, and familiarity with current contract requirements. 6.Description of efforts made to ensure offers are solicited from as many potential sources as is practicable, including notice publication: See 4. and 5. above. The proposed contract action will be synopsized at www.fbo.gov in accordance with FAR Part 5. 7.Fair and reasonable price determination: The anticipated cost is fair and reasonable to the Government based on using recent history of price for this type of service and comparison with the independent government estimate. 8.Market research: Market research was developed to support the independent government estimate. Data is also available from the recently completed national contract for the same services, which was competitively procured. 9.Other facts: None. 10.A listing of sources expressing an interest in writing: Carlos L. Lopez and Associates. 11.Statement of action for barriers to competition: None. 12.Contracting Officer certification: I hereby certify that the above justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. /s/ Dennis E.
