- NOTICE OF SOLE SOURCE AWARD - CONTRACT # FA4418-13-F-0008 (In accordance with FAR 8.405-6(a)(2)) THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of a sole source award under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c) (1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 8.405-6, Limited Sources. The Reference Number is FA4418-13-F-0008. The 628th Contracting Squadron, 101 E. Hill Blvd., Charleston AFB SC, awarded a contract for maintenance on Pyxis pharmacy machines to CareFusion Solutions of San Diego, CA 92130. Market research and information gathered determined this company to be the only source for this requirement. The Justification for the Sole Source Award is as follows: In accordance with FAR 8.405-6(c)(2): i. Agency and Activity: 628 Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Charleston, SC. ii. Nature of the action being approved: sole source justification approval. iii. The purpose of this acquisition is to: renew the maintenance agreement on Pyxis pharmacy machines. iv. Authority and Supporting Rationale: IAW FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B): Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized. v. The contracting officer has determined that the order represents the best value consistent with 8.404(d). vi. Description of market research: A search of GSA schedule holders and other open market sources revealed no other source capable of fulfilling the requirement. vii. Other facts supporting the justification: CareFusion is the sole manufacturer and exclusive provider of sales and service for Pyxis products in the United States. CareFusion does not contract these services to 3rd parties, therefore there are no other sources capable of meeting the requirement. viii. Actions to prevent barriers that led to restricted consideration in the future: Continue to survey the market for competition. ix. This justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. x. Evidence that supporting data is the responsibility of technical or requirements personnel: A justification was provided by the customer's technical representative that stated their research indicates CareFusion is the only brand capable of meeting the requirement.
