SECTION I: Introduction

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Security Operations (SO) and Contracting and Procurement propose to solicit and issue a purchase order based on soliciting only one source. (FAR 13.106-1 (b)(2))

SECTION II: Description of Action Being Approved This requirement is to provide cable TV service for DHS/TSA at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) for

FY21-22

(a) Vendor: Raleigh Durham Airport Authority

(b) Type of action: Firm Fixed-Price Contract,

(c) Raleigh-Durham International Airport has a sole source provider (Time Warner/Spectrum Business) for TV signal feed/service. The airport authority provides cables services as a third party service provider to all airport tenants who require cable service.

SECTION III: Description of Supplies or Services

This sole source justification will allow the issuance of a purchase order to the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority for monthly cable television service to three (3) cable service termination points at RDU airport.

SECTION IV: Identification of the Single Source Justification

FAR 13.106-1(b) Only one source is capable of responding due to the unique or specialized nature of the work.

Brand Name Only

An urgent and compelling need exists and soliciting more than one vendor would result in unacceptable delays.

A licensing agreement is required as a part of this purchase order, which is available from only one source.

SECTION V: Description of Rationale Only Time Warner (Spectrum Business) has contractual rights to provide cable television service at Raleigh- Durham International Airport. Previously RDU TSA staff explored the potential for satellite service (i.e. Direct TV) and was denied by the RDU airport AUTHORITY. The Owner/proprietor of the airport at RDU cited the denial based on the inability / prohibition of TSA to commission or mount a satellite dish in proximity to the airport terminal for service.

SECTION VI: Contracting Officer’s Determination that the Order Represents the Best Value

Providing cable television service will permit TSA to fulfill its mission requirements, and as such represents the

SAP Single Source Justification best value to the government.
