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-33561A. PROJECT/TASK No. N/A1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $9,377.79 2.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Contractor shall provide install of 20 additional panic alarms for the substance abuse (SUDRPS) clinic at the Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center, 1481 W. 10th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46202. The system will be installed so that when a panic alarm is pressed, VA dispatch will receive an alarm through their RS2 monitoring screen and a text alert will be sent to a programmed smart phone. Additionally, the associated camera to the pushed panic alarm will open on the security screen. This system shall include a one year warranty on all parts and labor. Central Security Systems, Inc., 6831 E. 32nd Street Ste100, Indianapolis, IN 46226 Delivery Date: May 30, 2016 3.UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: The panic alarms and equipment shall integrate with the existing RS2 security system that is currently being utilized at the Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center. Due to the high risk of interaction with aggressive patients, panic buttons must be installed to improve staff safety. Currently, there are no panic alarms located in the SUDRPS clinic. This is detrimental to staff safety and installing these panic alarms have been discussed by executive leadership for some time. CSS was awarded the security bid for the new domiciliary and the award for all the CBOCS as well and this system would tie into the server and software used for those sites. Server is located at the Richard L. Roudebush VAMC. 4. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Market research was conducted on the original buy and the contract was awarded to Central Security System. The panic alarms must integrate with the original security system, therefore, must be purchased from CSS. 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.
