- Description
- JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION FOR ACQUISITION OF A PNEUMATIC DRILL SINKER 1. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), CIV Troop Support, Directorate of Construction and Equipment is the contracting activity. 2. The action being approved is the acquisition of supplies by means of other than full and open competition. 3. The following are the supplies to meet DLA's needs: Item Description: Pneumatic Drill Sinker NSN: 3820-01-129-5511 Annual Estimated Quantity: 0 Unit Price: $ 1,172.06 Estimated Dollar Value: $175,809.00 4. The applicable statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(C) (1), FAR 6.302-1. Only one responsible source and no other supplies will satisfy agency requirements. 5. The nature of the acquisition requires the use of the cited authority: •a. The item is a Pneumatic Drill Sinker sole sourced to Ingersoll-Rand Co. (4P412) and there are no known substitutes or similar items that have been approved. This is the only item that will meet the minimum needs of the government. The Pneumatic Drill Sinker, part-number JH40C3 is the only one that meets the minimum needs of the Government. The item is unique because the item is proprietary to Ingersoll-Rand's Air Tool Division and the data needed to acquire this part competitively is not physically available. It cannot be obtained economically nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation. •b. The Pneumatic Drill Sinker is for use to help maintain the constant drilling speed throughout the life of the drill. •c. The technical data required to procure the subject item competitively is the property of Ingersoll-Rand Co. and is not physically available to DLA Troop Support or the government's Master Engineering Data Assets Locator Systems (MEDALS). The procurement is considered a first time purchase of the item. There is no historical procurement data available. SOURCE SELECTION INFORMATION - SEE FAR 2.101 AND 3.104 JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AN OPEN COMPETITION FOR ACQUISITION OF A PNEUMATIC DRILL SINKER 6. The solicitation will be posted to DIBBS (DLA Internet Bid Board System) and synopsized in the FEDBIZOPS to provide an opportunity for others expressing interest in bidding. 7. The Contracting Officer anticipates that at the time of contract award, all costs to the government will be fair and reasonable. Price reasonableness will be based on adequate independent source and price competition between dealers of the Original Equipment Manufacturer's part. 8. Market Research consisted of emailing one potential source of supply-W. W. Grainger Inc. who is a distributor of Ingersoll-Rand expressing an interest in bidding. Ingersoll-Rand does not sell directly to the government and provided W. W. Grainger Inc. as a distributor. DLA Troop Support performed a Market Research Survey to all available sources capable of satisfying the government needs. 9. There is no other information to add to the sole source procurement justification. 10. No source other than W. W. Grainger Inc. (a distributor of Ingersoll-Rand) has expressed an interest in this acquisition. 11. Since this acquisition will be publicized, alternate sources may respond to the Request for Proposal. All alternate sources submitted will be reviewed and considered for procurements and DLA Troop Support will continue to conduct appropriate market research to search for comparable items. 12. As the contracting officer, I hereby certify that this justification is accurate complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
