Text1: September 17, 2019
Text2: DLA Information Operations has a need to issue a sole source contract action to continue maintenance for Government owned production devices (devices) in Japan, without using competitive procedures. An award for a new maintenance contract SP7000-19-P-0077 has already been awarded with the possibility of service starting on March 31, 2019.
Text3: Continued maintenance, all consumable supplies (excluding paper), for 7 Government owned Fuji Xerox production copiers already in place for Japan.

POP: October 1, 2019 - March 30, 2019 Estimated contract value of $68,190.00.

Text4: 41 U.S.C. 1901 Simplified Acquisition Procedures; FAR 13.501(a) Sole source (including brand name) acquisitions.
Text5: Government owned Fuji Xerox equipment is currently in place in Japan. The devices must be supported by Fuji Xerox. Current equipment must be used to prevent a lapse in mission support due to the fact that the procurement of new/additional equipment will take longer than mission requirements allow. The only way to ensure the uninterrupted support to the Warfighter is to issue a contract to the current vendor.
Text6: A notice will be publicized to the GPE FedBizOpps.gov in accordance with FAR subpart 5.2.
Text7: Market research was conducted on the previous order SP7000-18-P-0101. This order is a continuation of services until the new devices on order SP7000-19-P-0077 can be tested and delivered.
Text8: Attempting to do a short-term contract via competitive procedures would result in unacceptable delays to achieve contract award. Delivery, testing, and installation of new equipment all of which would cripple the customer. The unacceptable delays would entail removal of the devices currently in place, re-competing the short term rental, and delivery of the short term rental, during which the customers will be without devices. An up to six month contract will provide adequate time for the delivery and installation of the new devices.
Text9: Fuji Xerox was the only vendor to respond to the sources sought notice posted on FedBizOpps.gov.
Text10: The subsequent acquisition for this effort was competed on FedBizOpps.gov under SP7000-19-Q-0024.
