|X| (a) FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i): Only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreement, brand name or industrial mobilization); OR

|_| (b) FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(ii): Only one source can provide a portion of the purchase that is a particular brand-name item; OR

|_| (c) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(A): An urgent and compelling need exists, and following the procedures would result in unacceptable delays; OR

|_| (d) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(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; OR

|_| (e) FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(C): In the interest of economy and efficiency, the new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order not previously issued under sole-source or limited-sources procedures.

5. Reason for Authority Cited: Ft. Meade MEDDAC has a requirement for Rental Office Containers. Previous discussions with businesses in the market (Large & Small) revealed that WILLSCOT was the only business capable and willing to rent containerized office space. Further to move these massive containers, disconnect the generators and replace them with another company’s containers would seriously disrupt the COVID-19 mission that has been occurring seamlessly for the past year. Service shall include all labor, parts, and materials as needed throughout the life of the contract. Without this contract, Ft. Meade and subordinate units would experience mission failure that greatly hampers their COVID 19 screening and testing operation. Ultimately patient care would suffer.

6. Actions to Increase Competition: There will be no further action taken to increase competition for this requirement. WILLSCOT is the sole developer and manufacturer of the Cortexflo system necessary to complete the mission. WILLSCOT is also the sole source for the proprietary components needed to maintain and/or repair these products. Finally, due to the sensitive nature of the work undertaken all sales and support are managed exclusively by WILLSCOT.

7. Market Survey: Market research was conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10. A search of the Small Business Administration (SBA) Quick Market Research website for NAICS Code 332311 “Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing” is shown below. These business concerns may provide other types of equipment but not the proprietary Rental Office Containers.
