Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: Olympus America, Inc in its sole proprietary letter noted that it does not have any authorized third party firms for endoscope repair and maintenance services, nor does Olympus sell original equipment manufacturer parts, tools or jigs from to any third party. Use of non-Olympus parts may invalidate the limited warranty, and it will invalidate the reprocessing (cleaning and disinfection) instructions provided in the device’s instructions for use.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

With a proprietary letter on file, there is no reasonable expectation of at least two small businesses.

Therefore, there is no reasonable expectation of at least two small businesses for this service.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
