Justification and Approval for Other than Full and Open Competition – FAR Part 6

1. Contracting Activity: 107th Mission Support Base Contracting Office

2. Description of Action: Firm-Fixed Priced contract for Sustainment, Renovation, and Modernization (SRM) services to install 26 linear feet of 2” diameter electric metallic tube (EMT) conduit the support multiple fiber communications wiring runs inside of the ongoing whole facility renovation Project #RVKG 08-2001 Renovate Operations & Training Facility, Building 901, Niagara Falls ARS, NY.

3. Description of Supplies/Services: Provide, install, and program intrusion detection and access control system to ensure security of facility and secure portions of the facility. As a tenant unit, we must install a system compatible with the host front-end Advantor system for security. The estimated value for these services is $119,377.45.

4. Authority Cited: 10 United States Code 3204 as implemented in RFO FAR 12.102(a) For acquisitions valued at or below the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT) and only one source is available.

5. Reason for Authority Cited: During demolition of the ongoing Building 901 renovation project un-documented fiber communications lines were discovered above the dropped ceiling in the basement. The fiber communications wire runs were substantially longer than needed and were taking up ceiling / head height room that was needed by the facility’s new mechanical ductwork. The fiber runs were determined by the 107th Communications Squadron as integrally supporting the real-world 24/7/365 mission that the 107th Attack Wing as a whole supports. A pre-coordinated authorized service interruption (ASI) was needed to be scheduled in order to accomplish the needed work, thereby delaying the eventual re-location of the runs. To protect the new fiber runs, and to provide a coordinated finished look, the new strands of fiber would instead have their path altered and going forward be placed in 2” EMT for protection.

6. Efforts to Obtain Competition: Working Knowledge Cabling and Communication Services is the current IT / communications sub-contractor on site for the facility renovation project and as such already has in-depth knowledge of the work needing to be performed and has already been sourcing and installing similar materials. It is therefore reasonable to utilize them to perform the needed communications fiber path relocation work. Soliciting for competition would directly and negatively impact the follow-on tasks needed to keep the overall construction timeline on track. Working Knowledge is also entirely aware of all applicable Uniform Facility Criteria (UFC) requirements to provide a fully compliance installation.

a. Effective competition. N/A

b. Subcontracting competition. N/A

7. Actions to Increase Competition: N/A

8. Market Research: Working Knowledge has the skillful labor needed to accomplish the needed communications conduit and fiber installation as well as the existing business lines of credit with all applicable suppliers and can perform the work according to the schedule and period of performance needed by the Government.

9. Interested Sources: None.

The basis for this determination is based on comparison of quoted material prices to commercially-available prices for the same materials. The quoted labor rates were also compared to those applicable to similar communications conduit and fiber installations.

Certified cost or pricing data will not be required for subcontract on basis that it is commercial available per exception in FAR 15.403-2(b)(3).
