11.020(4)(B) 1 E.

1.2. SFS Determination

Page:7

This Single Feasible Source Determination is made in accordance with the following Code of State

Regulation: 7 CSR 10-11.020 Procedures for Solicitation, Receipt of Bids, and Award and

Administration of Contracts

(4) The division may waive the requirement of competitive bids or proposals for supplies when the division has determined in writing that there is only a single feasible source for the supplies. Immediately upon discovering that other feasible sources exist, the division shall rescind the waiver and proceed to procure the supplies through the competitive processes as described in this rule.

(A) A single feasible source exists when:

1. Supplies are proprietary and only available from the manufacturer or a single distributor; or

2. Based on past procurement experience, it is determined that only one (1) distributor services the region in which the supplies are needed; or

3. Supplies are available at a discount from a single distributor for a limited period of time.

(B) When the Single Feasible Source procurement method is utilized, the division shall use the following guidelines to support the Single Feasible Source determination:

1. The following guidelines may be utilized to determine if supplies can be purchased as a single feasible source due to being proprietary:

A. The parts are required to maintain validity of a warranty;

B. Additions to a system must be compatible with original equipment;

C. Only one (1) type of computer software exists for a specific application;

D. Factory authorized maintenance must be utilized to maintain validity of a warranty;

E. The materials are copyrighted and are only available from the publisher or a single distributor; or

F. The services of a particular provider are unique, e.g., entertainers, authors, etc.

2. The following guidelines may be utilized if past procurement activity indicates that only one (1) bid has been submitted in a particular region. In these situations the division shall monitor the market for developing competition; and

3. The following guidelines may be utilized to determine if supplies may be purchased as a single feasible source due to being available at a discount for a limited period of time:

A. The discounted price must be compared to a price established through a reasonable market analysis; and

B. The discounted price should normally be at least ten percent (10%) less than the current contract or other comparable price. A discount of less than ten percent (10%) may be acceptable under appropriate market conditions. The discount should be compared to a price which, where feasible, should be no more than twelve (12) months old.

(C) On any single feasible source purchase where the estimated expenditure shall be five thousand dollars

($5,000) or over, the division shall post notice of the proposed purchase.

Other methods of advertisement, however, may be adopted by the division when such other methods are deemed more advantageous for the supplies to be purchased.
