About this file

This document is a Single Source Justification form for ground handling services for prograde unclassified pouch shipments at the U.S. Embassy in Harare, Zimbabwe. The requirement is to provide ground handling services for embassy pouch shipments, including customs clearance and delivery to Robert Gabiel Mugabe International Airport in Harare, with an estimated contract value of $50,000 for the performance period of June 1, 2025 to November 30, 2025. The justification notes that Beach Consultancy t/a Aviation Ground Services is the monopoly cargo handling provider at the airport, with no alternative sources available.

The document details the sole source justification based on Federal Acquisition Regulation 13.106-1(b)(1), specifically citing 41 USC 253(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 as the statutory authority. The Contracting Officer has determined that the vendor has a unique monopoly at the Harare airport for air cargo handling services, with no control over airline choices. The cost determination indicates that while prices are somewhat higher compared to neighboring posts, the lack of competitive options and the provider's flexibility and service quality justify the sole source procurement.
