Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source

The Polaris Defense and Police program is the only ATV/UTV manufacturing company that provides military and deployment specific vehicles. To purchase any other brand with the same capabilities would cost full market value plus the addition of all after market equipment add-ons with added installation costs. Furthermore, a check of local vendors has concluded with a market delay of six to twelve months on all orders and delivery. Lastly, the Polaris MRZR D4 Package is manufactured exclusively through Polaris Sales as the sole source provider on various national contracts, including GSA, contract number GS-039M, and Sourcewell, contract number 051717- PSI. The Polaris MRZR is on the QFFSQ LOGDET Equipment Packing List. SFS personnel must be trained prior to using the vehicle in a deployed location. Pre-deployment training will speed the integration process for deployment cycle operations.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Market Research was conducted through Internet searches, dealerships contacted, and GSA searches to find other options that could suit this need. There were no other options that had the had the capability of the Polaris MRZR D4, such the capacity size.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source Awards

This equipment item is listed on the QFFSQ LOGDET Equipment Packing List. As a 4-6 person carrier other vendors must work through the Security Forces Center to provide designs for manufacturing a UTV that meets the specifications of the Security Forces. There are plenty of 1 man ATVs and several 2 man UTVs.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
