- Description
- 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: 596-15-3-950-00761A. PROJECT/TASK NUMBER 1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $51,750 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Urodynamic Measurement Apparatus. Market research did find seven possible NAC contracts which might fulfill the order. 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: This is an urgent order affecting patient care. Seven potential mandatory schedule holders (V797) exist for urodynamic apparatus One mandatory source schedule holder provided brochures for review while the remaining did not have equipment meeting specifications or did not respond by the cutoff time. Customer review of the brochures and technical specifications determined the mandatory source equipment did not meet two requirements: (1) video urodynamics (2) two year warranty. 4. REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE, WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES: Recommended vendor offer fulfills the customer requirements. Because this is an urgent order, it was determined not to post a solicitation to FBO to find possible small business sources. Medical Measurement Systems Inc. USA, recommended vendor, is a verified small business with no exclusions with accomplishing business with the government. 5. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Reviewed mandatory sources and polled seven potential NAC schedule holders to determine if their products could fulfill the customer requirements. One vendor provided technical brochure of a possible product to meet the customer requirements. Customer review determined the apparatus did not meet two requirements: (1) video urodynamics (2) two year warranty 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: Jon E. Doliana Sr. Chief, Supply Acquisition
