About this file

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) to replace 7 outdated copier machines and establish a service maintenance agreement for the Alaska Region of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Kelley Connect (DBA Kelley Create), the only authorized Xerox distributor for the Juneau and Anchorage, Alaska offices, to provide the 7 replacement copiers and ongoing maintenance and supplies for all Xerox machines in the region. The total estimated value is $50,000-$60,000 for the base year and approximately $10,000 for each of the four option years. The sole source determination is based on Kelley Connect being the only vendor capable of servicing both the Juneau and Anchorage offices. The new copiers must be equivalent to the Xerox Versalink C625 Multifunction Printer. Delivery is expected within 120 days of award, and the service period of performance will begin immediately upon award.

BRAND NAME/SINGLE SOURCE DETERMINATION USING

SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (SAP)

FOR AN ACTION NOT EXCEEDING THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD

(AUTHORITY: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1))

1. Agency and contracting activity. Department of Commerce, NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office

(AGO), Fisheries OMB Field Delegates and Alaska Regional Office

2. Description of supplies or services required to meet agency needs (including the estimated value).

Historically, the Alaska Regional Office had 16 full-scale copier machines. Given the transition to partial telework schedules, the Region has recently reduced its printer fleet and retired or will soon be retiring six of these machines. Of the remaining 10 copiers, the Region seeks to replace seven dated machines and set-up a new service maintenance agreement with a vendor that can provide local customer support. Estimated value is $50,000-$60,000 for the base year and approximately $10,000 for each of the four option years.

3. Identification of the single source or the brand name to be solicited.

Vendor Name: Kelley Connect (DBA Kelley Create) Website: https://kelleycreate.com/ Phone: 907 723-7813 (cell), 907 790-5596 x 1 (office) POC: Jamie Kunz Email: jamie.kunz@kelleycreate.com

UEI: LH82KK31LWG7

4. Supporting rationale. Only one source or brand name is reasonably available as detailed below:

Only one awardee is capable - FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(B) – Only one company, Kelley Create can service both the Juneau office (Alaska Region headquarters) and the Alaska Region Anchorage field office. Currently, the vendor providing the majority of the FMC’s copier service (Xerox) is not meeting the region’s needs as they are inaccessible and unresponsive, leading to significant delays in machines being repaired. A local vendor is required to maintain adequate copier performance, which is necessary to conduct day-to-day work.

5. Market Research.

The FMC conducted online research to determine which firms could provide copier service in Anchorage in Juneau, in addition to contacting Kelley Connect and Xerox.

6. Technical/Requirements Representative Certification

I certify that this requirement constitutes the Government’s minimum needs and the supporting data provided herein is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
