MEMORANDUM FOR Purchase File – RB220232

FROM: Brian W endorff, Contract Specialist

FCI Sandstone / FPC Duluth

SUBJECT: Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition, St. Lukes Hospital

Per FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, 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.

Nature and/or description of the action being approved. This purchase is for the care of inmate Hamilton, Leslie Reg #07068-089. Inmate Hamilton requires a Low Anterior Bowel Resection.” Due the complexity of this specific care required the current BPA holders for FCI Sandstone are not equipped to provide such care. The estimated cost of this type of care is $50,000.00 which is determined to be fair and reasonable prices by the Contracting Officer.

I determine that St. Lukes Hospital is the only source reasonably available to provide this service for FCI Sandstone.

The Contracting Officer certifies that to the best of his knowledge this justification is accurate and complete.
