Description

JUSTIFICATION FOR SINGLE SOURCE AWARDS IAW FAR 13.106-1 (OVER MICRO-PURCHASE THRESHOLD($3.5K) 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.ACQUISITION PLAN ACTION ID: VA251-16-AP-35951A. PROJECT/TASK No. N/A1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $5,250.00 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Tuition fee for repair and maintenance training on the MaxiSky 600, the Sara Plus, and the MaxiMove III for two employees. The training will cover operation, maintenance, trouble shooting, and programming where necessary. There would also be time to cover the VA ceiling lift track load/deflection testing. Upon completion of the trainings, the employee will receive certificates of successful completion. POP: May 10, 2016 Vendor: Arjohuntleigh, Inc., 2349 W. Lake St. Ste 250, Addison, IL 60101 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: Arjohuntleigh is the manufacturer of the lifts. They are the only vendor that are authorized to train employees to be able to handle repairs & maintenance on their equipment without jeopardizing warranties. 4. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Market research was completed on the internet. Due to the proprietary nature of the lifts, the training must be completed by the manufacturer, Arjohuntleigh. 5. 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. Note: COs are required to make a determination of price reasonableness IAW FAR 13.106-3. See the Commercial Supply and Service SOP for Price Reasonableness templates.
