Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition – FAR Part 13 Acquisitions under the SAT

MEMORANDUM TO THE FILE

Subj: JUSTIFICATION FOR USE OF OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION FOR A FAR PART 13 ACQUISITION UNDER THE

SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD

I. BACKGROUND:

1. FAR Subsection 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) states for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization).

2. As required by FAR Subsection 13.106-3(b)(i), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement (or portion of the requirement to be sole-sourced) is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.

II. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM OR SERVICE:

Feedback survey software that is already approved in DITPR/DADMS, can be installed on Navy servers and can be accessed by unlimited account holders through a web browser. The myriad of capabilities offered by this software provides a complete capture of all functions required for electronic feedback surveys, to include data analysis.

SERVICES REQUIRED AT THE LEVEL OF QUALITY REQUIRED BECAUSE
