3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

As a follow-on procurement, any deviation of measurements or drawings in this requirement would likely result in unnecessary delays and/or added expenses to the project. Skytron, LLC is the Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for this requirement, and previously procured equipment is designed to solely support the installation of Skytron Boom equipment and specs. Structural support and

Skytron is also the only known contractor who can maintain the manufacturer-authorized warranty on the previously procured equipment being used in this requiment. Contracting with Skytron ensures the Atlanta VAMC has adequate technical support, standardization, preventative maintenance, and equipment parts for minor repairs.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

Numerous SDVOSBs are listed under NAICS 236220 in VetCert, and many are likely capable of doing similar work to what is required in this project. However, due to the circumstances enumerated under paragraph #3, market research analysis has determined that only one source (i.e., Skytron, LLC) is available to complete this requirement.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification:

This purchase is approved in accordance with FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
