JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

1. Identification of the Agency and Contracting Activity

Department of the Navy Strategic Weapons Facility, Atlantic (SWFLANT) located at 1150 USS Los Angeles Road, Kings Bay, GA 31547-2634

2. Nature and/or Description of the Action Being Approved

The acquisition of the supplies/services particular to one manufacturer or company because only one source is reasonable available under a Sole Source Justification.

3. Description of Supplies/Services Required to Meet the Agency’s Needs

DirecTV Satellite TV Service Renewal for seven buildings, to include new installation and service of another building.

4. Statutory Authority Permitting Brand Name Justification

This action is being executed in accordance with FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i) as only one source is reasonably available.

5. Rationale Supporting Use of the Authority

DirecTV has been installed in seven (7) SWFLANT buildings for over ten (10) years. SWFLANT has multiple satellite TV receivers in each building therefore, it would not be cost effective to use another vendor to install and remove the current service.

6. Description of Market Research Conducted

Market research, conducted in accordance with FAR 10.1001(a)(2)(iii), revealed that prospective providers are unwilling to submit formal quotations without first performing onsite assessments of the eight buildings. The costs associated with arranging site visits to these secured locations cannot be justified at this stage.

Nonetheless, installation of the 44 receivers will incur additional expenses not anticipated with the current contractor. These installation costs, coupled with the potential operational disruptions during the transition period, emphasize the financial and logistical benefits of maintaining the existing contractor.
