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: 695-16-1-133-00311A. PROJECT/TASK NUMBER : N/A1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $15,108.00 base year 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Justification and approval for a firm-fixed price base and 2 option year contract. PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. shall furnish all labor, transportation, parts, and expertise necessary to provide preventative maintenance and emergency (unscheduled) repair of the Clarus 500 Chromatograph and Clarus 500 Mass Spectrometer Turbo at the Hines VA Hospital. 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: Vendor verification statement of sole source on file. Perkin Elmer is the OEM of Clarus 500 Gas Chromatograph S/N 650N5093003, and one (1) Clarus 500 Mass Spectrometer Turbo, S/N 615N5092201, located in Room F317-1 at the William Hines Jr VAMC. PerkinElmer does not certify third party technical service nor do they have any dealers or distributors selling parts. 4. REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE, WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES: PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. is the sole source for factory new or factory remanufactured parts, local service representation and factory trained/certified engineers to provide service and installation for all instrumentation manufactured and sold by PerkinElmer, Inc. 5. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: For PerkinElmer, there is a GSA contract however, per Sarah Enos; Contract Support Specialist for PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc., PerkinElmer does not have any services on their GSA Contract. After reviewing the SDVOSB/VOSB on the VIP page, this service is not available through a SDVOSB or VOSB. Due to the certainty based on market research that this type of service can only be fulfilled directly by the manufacturer. Posted intent to sole source VA69D-15-Q-1337 to FBO on August 28, 2015. Upon response deadline, September 2, 2015, no other vendors responded. 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. The contracting officer has determined that this request will proceed as sole source, FAR: 13.106-1 only one source. 1
