About this file
This is a Single Source Justification document for a micro-purchase award by the Department of Veterans Affairs for Comcast Cable Television q2g services at the Northampton VA Medical Center in Leeds, Massachusetts.
The Northampton VA Medical Center requires Comcast Cable Television q2g services for its campus, with performance spanning from July 11, 2026 through July 10, 2031 (one base year plus four option years). The justification establishes that Comcast Cable Communications, LLC is the sole source available because it is the only cable and internet service provider serving the area. Market research confirmed no alternative providers through SBA DSBS, FPDS, or GSA eLibrary searches. Switching to a competing provider would necessitate removing and replacing Comcast's proprietary cable system currently installed throughout the Medical Center buildings, incurring significant costs and service disruptions that would negatively impact patient care. The Contract Officer Phillip Crockett certified approval under FAR 13.106-1(b), with digital signature dated June 16, 2026. The estimated costs for the base year and four-year option period are redacted in the document.

Attachment 1: Single Source Justification for MPT up to SAT
Revision: 02 Effective Date: 12/30/2025 Page 2 of 2 Acquisition ID#
LLC. Comcast Cable Communications is the sole provider in this area and sourcing through any other cable and internet provider would require them to install their own utility cables from the main street to the campus, and they would also have to install interior wiring and cabling to support the cable television boxes which would greatly increase costs and delays in providing the service. This would greatly impact patient care at the facility.
5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
