JUSTIFICATION AND APPROVAL

FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

1. Contracting Office - Defense Commissary Agency, CCQE Division, 2250 Foulois St., Ste. 3, Lackland AFB, TX 78236-1007

2. Type of Contract Action - Solicitation

3. Description of Supplies/Services -This acquisition will result in replacement of outdated equipment and systems at the Keesler AFB commissary. This includes the refrigeration ACC system, the HVAC systems and equipment. The government requires brand name or equivalent dual path cooling and dehumidification units and refrigeration air cooled condenser units. See drawings.

4. Authority Cited - The statutory authority permitting acquisition of the requirement by other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(c), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

5. Reason for Authority Cited -Based on limitations ofthe dimensions and integration to existing systems at the existing commissary, we had to be specific with requirements which resulted with a brand name or equivalent.

6. Efforts to Obtain Competition -. A synopsis will be posted for a minimum of 15 days to the Governmentwide point of entry (GPE) at https://www.sam.gov.

7. Market Research - Market research indicates this requirement can be met by a small business concern and should be set aside as a 100% small business set aside. A search of the SBA Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) generated a list of 731 potential sources.

Telephone calls and email communications to some of the potential sources identified five small business concerns interested in and capable ofmeeting the agency's requirements. Each source was verified as active and qualified in the System for Award Management (SAM). All required checks were completed and each source is eligible for award.

8. Actions to Increase/Foster Competition - Proceeding with a brand-name or equal procurement is the most practicable way to foster competition given the constraints established by the current design of the commissary facilities.
