- JUSTIFICATION FOR SINGLE SOURCE AWARDS IAW FAR 13.106-1 (OVER MICRO-PURCHASE THRESHOLD($3K) BUT NOT EXCEEDING THE SAT ($150K)) IAW FAR13.104, COs must promote competition to the maximum extent practicable to obtain supplies and services from the source whose offer is the most advantageous to the Government, considering the administrative cost of the purchase. When competition is not practicable, IAW FAR13.106-1(b), COs solicit from a single source for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. COs may solicit from one source if the CO determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). IAW FAR13.106-3(b)(3),COs are required to include additional statements explaining the absence of competition (see 13.106-1 for brand name purchases) if only one source is solicited and the acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold (does not apply to an acquisition of utility services available from only one source) or supporting the award decision if other than price-related factors were considered in selecting the supplier. This template when completed can be used to document single source awards IAW FAR13.106-3(b)(3). Note: Statements such as "only known source" or "only source which can meet the required delivery date" are inadequate to support a sole source purchase. 1. PURCHASE REQUEST OR REQUISITION NUMBER: 678-15-1-071-0009 1A. PROJECT/TASK # N/A1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $90,831.00 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: The total estimated cost of the requirement is $90,831.00 and consists of the following items: 1. GLIDESCOPE AVL SYSTEM - MOBILE STAND SETUP, PORTABLE MONITOR, COBALT 3-4 VIDEO BATON - INCLUDES OPERATION & SERVICE MANUAL QTY: 8 UNIT PRICE: $10,051.00 2.STYLE GUIDE (PRE-SHAPED). 10 PER PACK QTY: 8 UNIT PRICE: $272.00 3.AVL 3-4 BATON QTY: 2 UNIT PRICE $4,122.50 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: This requirement seeks to procure additional products to complement existing materials currently being used. Tucson VA is currently using Verathon Glidescope AVL System extensively throughout the facility. This procurement action seeks to increase volume to reach compliance of recent mandate regarding Emergency Airway devices. 4. REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE, WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES: Verathon is the only source capable of providing the Glidescope AVL because it is manufactured exclusively by Verathon and there are no known distributors for this product. NAC personnel acknowledges that an FSS vehicle is being developed offering this item, but states it is possibly weeks away from completion. 5. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Market Research from sources such as GSA Advantage, VA NAC Contract Catalog Search Tool, FPDS, Contract Directory, Google and VISTA found support that there have not been, nor are there currently, sources other than Verathon Inc., that can provide the required AVL for SAVAHCS. 6. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. ______________________________ Date:____________________ Douglas J.
