1. FAR 13.106 1(b)(1)(i) states 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 (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand name or industrial mobilization).

2. As required by FAR 13.106 3(b)(3)(i), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.

4. Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition

41 U.S.C. 1903 as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) One Source Reasonably Available

Additional Information Regarding Statutory Authority if Applicable

As implemented in the FAR Overhaul by FAR 12.102 Restricting Competition. Only one responsible source, Charter Communications Operating LLC, can provide both cable TV and high speed internet access with hard-wired cable connections to all required customer locations on Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam (JBPHH). The existing fiber optic and copper coaxial cable infrastructure that provides cable TV and Internet signals to these locations are owned by Charter Communications Operating LLC. Hard-wired cable is required, as opposed to satellite, due to the restrictions on modifying, adding, and mounting fixtures and materials of any type on buildings designated as or within historical districts, which are commonplace within JBPHH.

Any other source attempting to provide all required services would be required to develop and install a new infrastructure, which would not be able to be completed prior to the expiration of the existing contract, resulting in unacceptable delays and interruptions in cable TV and Internet services.

Charter Communications Operating LLC (Spectrum) is the only responsible source that is capable of providing this requirement for continuing fiber connect services.
