The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Contracting Office (ECO) intends to make contract award pursuant to the authority of FAR 13.106, Soliciting Competition, Evaluation of Quotations or Offers, Award and Documentation, for the purposes of providing written consent and approval to award a Sole Source contract to Xylem, Inc.

ERDC requires the purchase of six (6) YSI EXO data sondes and water quality probes manufactured by Xylem, Inc

In accordance with FAR 13.106(b) Soliciting from a single source (1) For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold (i) Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g. urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). Specific characteristics that limits availability is that the system must be compatible with the existing water quality instrument infrastructure and there are no resellers of this system.

Based on the above and in accordance with FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i), it is hereby determined that Xylem, Inc. is the only vendor capable of providing the sic (6) YSI EXO data sondes and water quality probe equipment and it is in the best interest of the Government to award a sole source contract to Xylem, Inc. for this requirement.
