Attachment 4_BNJ_FSS Tractor_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for a John Deere 3032E tractor purchase by the 30th Contracting Squadron at Vandenberg Space Force Base. The fitness center requires the tractor to support maintenance of softball fields, disc golf course, and other areas, with specific justification highlighting the tractor's 32-horsepower engine, hydrostatic transmission, and compact utility design as ideal for the mission's diverse terrain and operational needs.

The acquisition process involves three competitive quotes already received, with a formal solicitation to be published on SAM.gov to obtain additional vendor quotes. The 30th Force Support Squadron will continue conducting market research to identify potential sources and promote competition. The contracting officer has determined, in accordance with FAR guidelines, that only a single source is reasonably available for this requirement. The estimated contract is dated 24-Jul-2025, with the solicitation number FA461025Q0065, and quotes are due by 15 Aug 2025 at 1:00 PM PST.
