Section A: General Contract Information

Is this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan? Yes No

Contracting Activity: 27 SOCONS

Project/Program Name: Watercraft Storage

Purchase Request / Local ID Number:

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $0.00

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

Three Storage facilities are required to store three watercraft used by 27 SOSS OPFOR for 27 SOSS SERE training several times a month. Location of facility is Logan NM, next to Ute Lake, to minimize wear and tear and trailer and boat from a 200 mile round trip from Cannon AFB to Ute Lake. The proposed contact type for the new acquisition will be firm-fixed-price with base year plus 4 option periods. The three storage facilities must be accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A key/combo lock must also be used to secure the watercraft. Dimensions of the facility must be 30' in length, 14' in width, and 14' door.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

In accordance with 10 USC 2304(c), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(1)(i)(A), only one responsible source and no other supplies/services will satisfy agency requirements. Nautical Hideaway is the only company able to provide three storage facilities to meet the minimum requirement with the specific size, lighting, and controlled access options.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Market research was conducted to find as many potential vendors as possible within Logan, NM. Only one source was found to satisfy the requirement within a practicable distance from Ute lake.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

None. Storage facility for three watercraft must be located in Logan, NM to minimize wear and tear on the equipment. If watercrafts are stored on Cannon AFB, they would have to be towed 200 miles round trip several times a month causing additional maintenance.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
