15B41125P00000010 Flix Bus North America JA-s.pdf

This is a Non-Competitive Memorandum for Simplified Acquisition Actions (IAW FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)) justifying a sole source award for inmate release transportation services at FCI Pekin, IL. The document is signed on October 24, 2024.

The memorandum identifies Flix Bus North America as the sole responsive vendor capable of meeting the government's requirements for inmate release transportation services. The estimated cost for FY25 will be under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The justification cites 41 U.S.C.253 and 41 U.S.C. 1901(e) as statutory authority for other than full and open competition. Flix Bus has previously provided these services successfully, and the price is deemed fair and reasonable based on historical pricing. The document requires Unit Management, Correctional Systems, and Contracting personnel to monitor the marketplace for future competition opportunities, with a commitment to award future requirements competitively if such opportunities arise.
