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: 618-15-1-6023-00131A. PROJECT/TASK NUMBER 1B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: $89,092.10 (base + 2 options) 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Fixed price, base plus two option year sole source Contract for preventive maintenance, repairs and service of four (4) Getinge manufactured cart washers. Proprietary repair FAR Part 6.302-1. 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED:. Getinge shall provide parts and labor to maintain the Getinge manufactured, 9100 model cart washers located in The Sterilizing Processing Services Department, Food and Nutrition and the Building 49 Research department. The services are crucial to the sterilizing and cleaning of equipment that supports the VA Surgery Department, as well as other infection control-critical areas. 4. REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE, WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES: This equipment is Proprietary to the manufacturer. Getinge, the manufacturer, is the only vendor qualified or able to provide service on this equipment. 5. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: There are no other responsible sources available at this time. If other responsible sources are found in the future, competitive offers will be solicited. Steris Corporation and Minnesota Medical Corporation were both contacted for possible maintenance sources, but neither of them has been factory trained by Getinge, and therefore is not qualified to work on this equipment. 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. Signature: Chad L. Raterman Date:____________________ Name: Chad L.
