IDENTIFICATION OF STATUTORY AUTHORITY

This acquisition is conducted under the authority of Section 201 of the Federal Property and Administration Act of 1949 (40 U.S.C. 501). The circumstances and rationale for restricting consideration of contractors is FAR 6.302-1, “only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.”

DEMONSTRATION THAT THE PROPOSED CONTRACTOR’S UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS OR THE

NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRE THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED

FAR 6.302-1 allows restricting consideration of contractors whenever the supplies or services required by the agency are available from only one or a limited number of responsible sources, and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

In an email dated February 28, 2023, the customer stated the following:

“This jackstand is specifically designed for the JLTV by Oshkosh and there is a key component to these jackstands that is needed to raise and lower the system that we already have on hand with our original set that was fielded from Oshkosh with our Field Level tool kit. The parts for these jackstands would be interchangeable with the two systems each BN Motorpool already has on ground which would make it easier to swap parts between the systems if necessary. Please let me know or call if you need additional justification to push through the request for only the Oshkosh JLTV jackstand system.”

DETERMINATION BY THE CO THAT THE ANTICIPATED COST TO THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE

FAIR AND REASONABLE.

As was previously stated, in accordance with FAR 6.302-1, competition will be limited to Oshkosh Defense LLC P/N 4408170. However, among vendors carrying these items, competition will be promoted to ensure fair and reasonable pricing.

The Contract Specialist will conduct price analysis techniques to substantiate the price reasonableness of the items requested in the award decision document. This includes comparing the proposed award price with pricing received from other vendors in response to the RFQ, as well as making direct and indirect price comparisons to the same and similar commercial items.

IAW FAR 5.2, the Contracting Officer will synopsize and post the solicitation and Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition to SAM.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED

The Contract Specialist conducted a search of GSA Advantage and this item was not listed. Further, the manufacturer of the item confirmed that they do not have this item on their GSA Schedule contract. Therefore, the Contract Specialist determined that an Open Market procurement would be the best course of action.
