1. FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) states for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer 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).

2. As required by FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.

Period of Performance: 22 December 2022 - 21 December 2023. Includes four (4), 12-Month, Option Periods.

Government Estimate: $

III. THE DETERMINATION FOR USE OF OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:

A. ONLY ONE RESPONSIBLE SOURCE Yes

1. Restrictive Rights Yes The source has established proprietary rights, limited rights in data, patent rights, copyrights or secret processes in the item or service required.

Explain what rights are restricted, why the restrictive rights make the required item or service available from only one source, and why another company could not satisfy the Government's need.

Cable TV infrastructure at these locations are owned/managed by Comcast. All digital receivers are proprietary in nature and cannot be utilized by other vendors to provide services.

An award to any other source would jeopardize compatibility with existing equipment and/or would result in substantial duplication of cost or additional cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, in addition to unacceptable delays in meeting the Government requirements. Similar products lack features that are necessary to meet the Government's minimum needs or other contractors are not qualified to perform necessary services.

2. Exclusive Licensing Agreements No The item or service is only available from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), or there is only one authorized distributor or technical representative for the OEM.
