Subj: USE OF OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION FOR AN

ACQUISITION UNDER THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD

I. BACKGROUND:

1. FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) states for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization).

2. As required by FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.

II. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM OR SERVICE:

The general requirement is to provide a site investigation with in the footprint of an upcoming project, P818U. The project site is adjacent to seven ready-issue fuel tanks that were slated for closure, but were determined to have had leaks that impacted the soil immediately surrounding the ready issue tanks. The purpose of this survey is to determine whether there is contamination in the P818U project site. The work will require the collection of 30 soil samples, collected from 15 borings; collection of six ground water samples, collected from the six monitoring wells that are to be installed; followed by a wide range of testing of the samples; a final report with the results, and, if required, a conceptual site model showing any contamination on the P818U project site.

III. THE DETERMINATION FOR USE OF OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:

A. ONLY ONE RESPONSIBLE SOURCE (select all that apply):

1. X OTHER REASONS. GYA Promotores SL (GYA) is an Architect and Engineering firm in Puerto Santa Maria. GYA is a subconsultant to a firm which NAVFAC EURAFCENT has a single award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC), and that same firm, along with GYA as a second-tier subconsultant, is also a subconsultant on another NAVFAC Atlantic IDC. 'While either of these vehicles are available, the FEAD Rota determined it would be in the best interests of the Government to contract directly with GYA, because GYA performed similar sampling and testing under the project that was designing the closure of the ready-issue tanks adjacent to the P81 8U site. Therefore, GYA is has unique knowledge of the adjacent site and has already demonstrated their capability to perform this type of

work. In addition, the Government will pay a reduced cost by not utilizing the Prime Contractors under the IDCs at the FEAD's disposal.
