Single Source Justification Elevator Maintenance.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification document for elevator maintenance services at the U.S. Embassy in Cotonou, Benin. The document justifies awarding a sole-source contract to CFAO Infrastructure, Benin for preventive maintenance services on three electric elevators (two in the Chancery and one at the Ambassador's Residence) with an estimated value of $118,000 including options.

The justification explains that CFAO Infrastructure is the only competent OTIS Company Representative in Benin that offers warranties in accordance with the elevator manufacturer's recommendations. As the Benin branch of CFAO and the sole manufacturer-certified contractor in the region, only CFAO Infrastructure can provide technicians, spare parts, and preprogrammed components using OTIS certified material. The contract requires monthly maintenance services and 24/7 emergency response capability to support the Office of Facility Management's Reliability Centered Maintenance Plan. The Contracting Officer has determined the price to be fair and reasonable based on past U.S. Government rates.
