The 25% factor covers any price increase that may be requested by the vendor over the next three years and the possibility of an increase in demand of the NSNs .

All twelve NSNs will be solicited for the establishment of a Blanket Purchase Agreement. The estimated value for the three year Blanket Purchase Agreement is $510,021.95.

IDENTIFICATION OF STATUTORY AUTHORITY

This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) program. The primary statutory authorities for MAS are Title III of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (41 USC 251), and Title 40 U.S.C. 501, Services for Executive Agencies. The circumstances and rationale for limiting consideration to one schedule contractor for award follows: Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services as described in FAR 8.405-6(a) (1) (i) (B). These items are also peculiar to one manufacturer as described in FAR 8.405-6(b).

DEMONSTRATION OF UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS

Plastek LLC is the only source available that supplies products that can meet the specifications set forth in the Item Purchase Description (IPD’s) for NSN’s 4920-01-569-3630, 4920-01-569-3632, 4920-01-569-3634, 7920-01-573-3234, 7930-01-534-1781, 7930-01-569-3636, 7930-01-573-3189, 7930-01-573-3192, 7930-01-573-3193, 7930-01-573-3196, 7930-01-573-3226, and 7930-01-573-3230. Plastek LLC’s products are listed as approved under ARMY TECHNICAL MANUAL TM 1-1500-204-23-10. The material is used for critical applications on military aircraft canopies. The part numbered items were tested and approved by the U.S. Army Aviation Engineering Directorate for use on aircraft. The use of unapproved items could cause scratches or hazing that obstructs views adversely affecting a pilot’s ability to carry out a mission, or may cause other damage resulting in costly repairs/replacements of aircraft canopies. There are no approved substitutes.

The main factors that justify the restriction to this single vendor are as follows:

· All the above items are listed as approved under ARMY TECHNICAL MANUAL TM 1-1500-204-23-10. The material is used for critical applications on military aircraft canopies. The part numbered items were tested and approved by the U.S. Army Aviation Engineering Directorate for use on aircraft.

· Plastek LLC is the only company on GSA Advantage that manufactures and distributes the part numbers that meet the requirements of the IPDs for the NSNs listed.

Based on market research performed and the customer provided Army Technical Manual (TM 1-1500-204-23-10), both specify that the Plastek LLC is currently the only known source for this requirement.

DETERMINATION THAT THE ANTICIPATED AWARD WILL BE THE BEST VALUE

A best value determination will be documented. Price reasonableness will be determined by comparison with similar products or, as a matter of indirect comparison, the Contracting Officer will seek out additional pricing data and recent history from Plastek LLC to substantiate price reasonableness. Prior to any award the Contracting Officer will seek price reductions from the proposed awardee, Plastek LLC, listed under Schedule 73, Special Item Number (SIN) 375 364. Market research has shown the items listed in this procurement are available using a Multiple Award Schedule Contract awarded under the aforementioned Schedule and SIN. The Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be posted on GSA’s e-Buy program along with this Limited Source Justification (LSJ). The Justification will also be posted at the GPE (www.fbo.gov) within 14 days after award of the BPA and will remain posted for 30 days. Award will be made in the aggregate for all items.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED

Market research was conducted among schedule holders via GSA Advantage and no other vendors listed the part numbers manufactured by Plastek LLC. A review of schedule contract vendors listed under Schedule 73, SIN 375 364, yielded only one specific source of supply (Plastek LLC, GS-07F-9543S) for these brand name, part number specific items. Due to the proprietary nature of Plastek LLC’s products, this should be a sole source procurement.

OTHER FACTS SUPPORTING THE USE OF THE OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

All factors are described under DEMONSTRATION OF UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS above.

STATEMENTS OF ACTION TO OVERCOME BARRIERS TO COMPETITION

This is a limited source procurement. Market research has determined that the items are only available through one source, Plastek LLC; therefore, the Request for Quote (RFQ) will be posted on e-Buy to allow all MAS vendors to see the RFQ and this LSJ. Due to the propriety nature of Plastek LLC’s products, there is no way to overcome barriers for competition at this time.

TECHNICAL/REQUIREMENTS CERTIFICATION

After conducting market research, the contract specialist concluded that it was in the best interest of the Government to conduct this procurement as a Limited Source Acquisition to Plastek LLC, GS-07F-9543S.
