Description of Requirement:
This sole source justification authorized the issuance of a firm fixed contract for the procurement of equipment repairs to meet the government's requirement.
Technical Justification:
The Specialist reached out to the manufacturer to determine there are no resellers for this requirement. The government received a letter from the manufacturer that indicated “the current vendor (Boland Trane Services, Inc) is the sole and exclusive agent for Trane equipment in this area.

Price Determination:
The Contract Specialist will perform price analysis to ensure the price paid is determined to be fair and reasonable. The resultant order will represent the best value (as defined in FAR 2.101) and result in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative cost, etc.) and represents the best value to meet the government's need.
