4. Authority Cited:

(a) FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i): Only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreement, brand name or industrial mobilization); OR

(b) FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(ii): Only one source can provide a portion of the purchase that is a particular brand-name item; OR

(c) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(A): An urgent and compelling need exists, and following the procedures would result in unacceptable delays; OR

(d) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B): Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized; OR

(e) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(C): In the interest of economy and efficiency, the new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order not previously issued under sole-source or limited-sources procedures.

5. Reason for Authority Cited: GSL Solutions Inc. Company’s GSL system GSL is the sole source provider for GSL’s operating system (IntelliSys), RFID devices (IntelliPads), RFID enable prescription storage cabinets (IntelliCabs) and other OEM equipment and services – to include the Autonotify software feature that integrates with the GSL operating system. The facility manages pharmacy cabinets across seven sites. This software subscription will enhance the capability of these cabinets by incorporating text messaging services to alert patients when their prescription is placed in a cabinet and ready for pickup. These services must be sole sourced to GSL Solutions because the software is proprietary and any other company software is incompatible with the IntelliSys operating system. Failure to award sole source will add risk to the prescription management system real-time prescription tracking, add physical barriers to patient care with prescription fill delays and dispensing errors.

6. Actions to Increase Competition: A notice of intent to award a sole source contract will be placed on the SAM.GOV website. Due to intellectual property rights and proprietary rights no other vender is expected to provide required services.

7. Market Survey: Market research was conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10 to identify qualified sources. Market research was conducted on 17 December 2024, on the Dynamic Small Business Search website by utilizing the keyword: “Parata” or “Autonotify Software”, and/or the NAICS Code 541511 Custom Computer Programming Services.
