Subject: Sole Source – JDS Industries – BOP Retirement Plaques and Gift Boxes Clocks
The Federal Bureau of Prisons has issued a purchase order to UNICOR for Retirement Plaques and Gift Boxes.
In reviewing previous purchases for these retirement items for the BOP, it was found that they have been previously purchased from UNICOR specifically using the materials manufactured by JDS Industries. The BOP requires this same exact box and plaque to match their existing inventory. The sales order is projected to cover all of their needs for a one year period. This is the only vendor that provides this exact box and plaque, required by the BOP. Other retailers that carry these items obtain them from JDS Industries, and mark the prices up (as they are only a distributer, and not the manufacturer).
Purchase is considered fair and reasonable based on similar items found during market research.
