3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

This authority allows sole source awards for essential equipment repairs needed to preclude impairment of healthcare delivery capabilities or mission performance, based on 41 USC §3304(a)(2).

Chiller 3 cools the hospital's Bed Tower, Ewing, and Ambulatory Care Unit. As a result, the facility cannot serve patients during unscheduled system outages. Florida Mechanical Services installed the new control system and VFD on Chiller 3. The contractor has trained factory-certified technicians to evaluate the mechanical failure and repair the equipment. Florida Mechanical Services is green in Fed Data, registered in SAM, and can begin the services upon notification.

No market research was performed due to this requirement's urgent and compelling nature. A verbal Notice to Proceed was issued on 12/19/22 to begin the emergency 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.
