1. MODOT SINGLE FEASIBLE SOURCE

1.1. SFS Notification

The Missouri Department of Transportation has determined only one source, Skyline Technology Solutions, LLC, can provide the department with video sharing service on existing Skyline Technology Solutions servers and support. This determination is in accordance with the following section of 7 CSR 10- 11.020(5)(A) 1 and 7CSR10-11.020(5)(B) 1 A, B, & D.

1.2. SFS Determination

This Single Feasible Source Determination is made in accordance with the following Code of State Regulation: 7 CSR 10-11.020 Procedures for Solicitation, Receipt of Bids, and Award and Administration of Contracts

(5) The division may waive the requirement of competitive bids or proposals for supplies when the division has determined in writing that there is only a single feasible source for the supplies. Immediately upon discovering that other feasible sources exist, the division shall rescind the waiver and proceed to procure the supplies through the competitive processes as described in this rule.

(A) A single feasible source exists when:

1. Supplies are proprietary and only available from the manufacturer or a single distributor; or

2. Based on past procurement experience, it is determined that only one (1) distributor services the region in which the supplies are needed; or

3. Supplies are available at a discount from a single distributor for a limited period of time.

(B) When the Single Feasible Source procurement method is utilized, the division shall use the following guidelines to support the Single Feasible Source determination:

1. The following guidelines may be utilized to determine if supplies can be purchased as a single feasible source due to being proprietary:

A. The parts are required to maintain validity of a warranty;

B. Additions to a system must be compatible with original equipment;

C. Only one (1) type of computer software exists for a specific application;

D. Factory authorized maintenance must be utilized to maintain validity of a warranty;

E. The materials are copyrighted and are only available from the publisher or a single distributor;

or F. The services of a particular provider are unique, e.g., entertainers, authors, etc.

2. The following guidelines may be utilized if past procurement activity indicates that only one (1) bid has been submitted in a particular region. In these situations the division shall monitor the market for developing competition; and

3. The following guidelines may be utilized to determine if supplies may be purchased as a single feasible source due to being available at a discount for a limited period of time:

A. The discounted price must be compared to a price established through a reasonable market analysis; and

B. The discounted price should normally be at least ten percent (10%) less than the current contract or other comparable price. A discount of less than ten percent (10%) may be acceptable under appropriate market conditions. The discount should be compared to a price which, where feasible, should be no more than twelve (12) months old.

C. On any single feasible source purchase where the estimated expenditure shall be five thousand dollars ($5,000) or over, the division shall post notice of the proposed purchase. Where the estimated expenditure is twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or over, the division shall also advertise its intent to make such purchase in such places as are most likely to reach prospective bidders or offerors and may provide such information through an electronic medium available to the general public at least five (5) days before the contract is to be let.

Other methods of advertisement, however, may be adopted by the division when such other methods are deemed more advantageous for the supplies to be purchased. The requirement for advertising may be waived, if not feasible, due to the supplies being available at a discount for only a limited period of time.

1.3. SFS Contestation

Prospective vendors are requested to provide information regarding their ability to supply the commodities or contractual services described by attaching a response within the SFS Solicitation. If it is determined in writing by the agency, after reviewing any information received from prospective vendors, that the commodities or contractual services are available only from a single source, the agency shall: provide notice of its intended decision to enter a single-feasible-source purchase contract in the manner specified in Section 7 CSR 10-11.020 (5).

1.4. Personal Privacy Protection Act Notification

3. The MHTCs right to reject any unacceptable equipment, supplies, and/or services shall not exclude any other legal, equitable or contractual remedies the MHTC may have.

2.17. Invoicing and Payment

The statewide financial management system has been designed to capture certain receipt and payment information.

2.20. The Domestic Products Procurement Act

This section only applies to commodity purchases greater than $25,000.00. It does not apply when bidding services.

In accordance with the Domestic Product Procurement Act (hereinafter referred to as the Buy American Act) sections 34.350 to 34.359, RSMo, the bidder is advised that any goods purchased or leased by any public agency shall be manufactured or produced in the United States.

Bidders who can certify that goods or commodities to be provided in accordance with the contract are manufactured or produced in the United States or imported in accordance with a qualifying treaty, law, agreement, or regulation shall be entitled to a ten percent (10%) preference over bidders whose products do not qualify.

The requirements of the Buy American Act shall not apply if other exceptions to the Buy American mandate in section 34.353, RSMo, are met.

If the bidder claims there is only one line of the good manufactured or produced in the United States, subsection 2 of section 34.353, RSMo, or that one of the exceptions of subsection 3 of section 34.353, RSMo, applies, the Executive Head of the Agency bears the burden of certification as required prior to the award of a contract.

In accordance with the Buy American Act, the bidder must provide proof of compliance with section 34.353, RSMo.

Therefore the bidder should complete and return Exhibit N, certification regarding proof of compliance, with the bid. This document must be satisfactorily completed prior to an award of a contract.

If the lowest priced bidder qualifies as American-made or in the event of all the bidders or none of the bidders qualify for the Buy American preference, no further calculation is necessary. In the event the lowest priced bidder does not qualify for the Buy American Preference but other bidders do qualify, then the low bidder's price(s) is increased by 10% for those items not eligible for the Buy American Preference.
