CMOP, 2237: 762-26-1-038-0036.

(3) Description of Supplies:

FAN FOLD PAPER – TTP-48-FF

CMOP ID#: 5036.

Quantity: 11520; $$/bx.

Estimated 1,920 cases delivered every three weeks. This is approximately a 3 month supply.

(4) Identify the Authority and Supporting Rationale (see below and if applicable, a demonstration of the proposed contractor’s unique qualifications to provide the required supply or service.

FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(A): An urgent and compelling need exists and following the ordering procedures would result in unacceptable delays:

This requirement is to ensure stock is replenished in order to make sure production does not shut down. Due to the installation of the new Semi Automated Packing machines, the CMOP usage of the product was skewed and there is not enough product to continue operati 10/24/25. The solicitation went out on 10/22/25. Vendor Jemni, Inc., a VETCERT registered, SDVOSB, is the only known SDVOSB vendor with a FSS contract, that has had their product tested and approved by the CMOP. The Tucson CMOP requires a delivery by 10/25/2025 so the CMOP will not run out of Fan Fold Paper to ship the required medications to the Veterans.

There is no time to solicit and request samples for approval in that timeframe.

FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(B): Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized:

FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(C): In the interest of economy and efficiency, the new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order provided that the original order was placed in accordance with the applicable Federal Supply Schedule ordering procedures. The original order must not have been previously issued under sole source or limited source procedures.

FAR 8.405-6(b): Items peculiar to one manufacturer:

A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is:

These are “direct replacements” parts/components for existing equipment.

The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed/performing.

(5) Describe Why You Believe the Order Represents the Best Value consistent with FAR 8.404(d) to aid the contracting officer in making this best value determination:

Jemni, Inc., a VIP listed SDVOSB, has successfully provided the requested item in the past. They are the current supplier of this product.

The cost was determined to be fair and reasonable based on the IGCE and the last award (contract #36C77025F0015; awarded on 10/02/24).

(6) Describe the Market Research Conducted among schedule holders and the results or a statement of the reason market research was not conducted.

Based on historical procurements that have been awarded to “Jemni, Inc.” and IAW VAAR 819.7008(a)(1)&(3) & (4), a contracting officer may award a contract to a VIP-listed service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) using other than competitive procedures provided the anticipated award price of the contract (including options) will not exceed $5 million; Jemni has been determined to be a responsible contractor with respect to performance and in the estimation of the contracting officer, awarding a short term sole source contract to Jemni, represents the best value to the Government as Jemni has successfully provided the requested item in the past. Most recently on contract #36C77025F0015 on 10/02/24.

An Intent to Sole Source was posted on SAM.gov on 10/22/25. No vendors responded with an interest in bidding on future opportunities.

Buy American Statute: Buy American Statute: The item for this procurement is being procured on GSA. FSS contracts are covered by Trade Agreements Act (TAA), and are covered by the underlying GSA base contract.

(7) Any Other Facts Supporting the Justification:

The first delivery is needed by 10/25/25, as the CMOP will be out of this product by then and will be unable to Ship medication to veteran patients.

(8) A Statement of the Actions, if any, the agency may take to remove or overcome any barriers that led to the restricted consideration before any subsequent acquisition for the supplies or services is made:

A new National IDIQ package (36C77025Q0274) supporting this requirement is currently being established. The solicitation is expected to go out sometime FY26. Samples will need to be submitted and meet third party testing, to ensure each vendor is provided with a fair opportunity. This IDIQ contract will support all seven(7) CMOP locations, and multiple single awards are expected.

(9) Requirements Certification: I certify that the requirement outlined in this justification is a Bona Fide Need of the Department of Veterans Affairs and that the supporting data under my cognizance, which are included in the justification, are accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that processing of this limited sources justification restricts consideration of Federal Supply Schedule contractors to fewer than the number required by FAR Subpart 8.4. (This signature is the requestor’s supervisor, fund control point official, chief of service or someone with responsibility and accountability.)
