About this file

This document is a Justification and Approval for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 13.106-1(b) to limit the solicitation to one source. The supplies required are for updated security system equipment, including cameras, audio-visual alerters, software, recording devices, security radar, and miscellaneous accessories and attachments, for the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Columbia River facility. The sole source justification is that the brand "Axis Communication" supplies integrate with the current system infrastructure, enabling expansion with self-installation, while an alternate brand would require a full contracted installation and changes to utility infrastructure, making it cost-prohibitive. The estimated amount is $63,780.62, and the authority cited is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) - only one responsible source. The contracting officer has determined that the Axis Communication brand is the only reasonably available source to meet the government's requirements.

JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (SAP) FAR 13.106-1(b)

SOLICITATIONS MAY BE LIMITED TO ONE SOURCE ONLY IF THE CONTRACTING OFFICER DETERMINES THAT ONLY ONE SOURCE IS REASONABLY AVAILABLE. THIS DETERMINATION MUST BE SUPPORTED WITH FULL JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE FROM THE CUSTOMER. WHEN THE CUSTOMER DESCRIBES AN ITEM WITH A PURCHASE DESCRIPTION WHICH LIMITS THE AVAILABILITY TO ONE SOURCE, THE JUSTIFICATION MUST EXPLAIN WHY THE ITEM IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WILL MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENT. STATEMENTS SUCH AS "ONLY KNOWN SOURCE" OR "ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN MEET THE REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE" ARE INADEQUATE TO SUPPORT A SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE. Do not use marketing language in this document. Language such as “This company has made its mark,” “This company is recognized as industry’s best,” and “This company is the leader in…” is unacceptable.
