JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE ($5k-$250k) Ref: FAR 13.106(b)

The service or material listed on (Document number) 2035 - 1700, 1701, 1702, 1703 is sole source and competition must be restricted to one source, or to only one brand name for reasons indicated below. There are no substitutes available for this material.

Restricted to the following source or brand name. Provide original manufacturer's name.

(If a sole source manufacturer distributes via dealers, ALSO provide dealer information.)

Manufacturer: Radiation Safety & Control Services, Inc.

Manufacturer POC & Phone Nr._ Stephen D. Nester, 800-525-8339 Mfr. Address 93 Ledge Road Seabrook, BH 03874 Manufacturers Dealer/Rep Dealer/Rep Address/Phone Number

X_Description of the item or service required, the estimated cost, and required delivery date.

SIM-Teq System kit containing (6) SIM-Teq D TD, (15)RadTag-Mini, and (15) TWR Mini-Source

X_Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source or particular brand name (unique features, function of the item, etc.).

Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.

Code 105 requires additional radiological simulation training equipment to incorporating into existing radiological simulation training systems at PSNS & IMF. Current radiological training systems approved for use in Code 105 radiological training utilize a Code 109 furnished Standalone PIT system with the SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center software installed on it. The SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center allows radiological instructors to remotely view and control radiological training scenarios from a single Standalone PIT system. This system is operated by a single instructor who is also tasked with monitoring trainees. All radiological simulation training equipment must be remotely viewed and controlled from a single Standalone PIT system, thus it is required that the new radiological training equipment is compatible with the SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center.

The radiological simulation training equipment can only be bought from the manufacturer.

The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the

Government.

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

_X The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. Justi Describe the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

PSNS & IMF currently owns several SIM-Teq radiological simulation training systems that utilizes the SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center software and a SIM-Teq Dongle that creates a wireless system that connects gamma radiation simulators, survey meter simulators, and dosimetry simulators. The new radiological simulation training equipment must connect to the existing SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center via the existing wireless network.

Additionally, the new equipment must create a wireless network that is compatible with existing equipment and SIM-Teq Simulation Control Center A patent, copyright, or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is:

These are “direct replacements” parts/components for existing brand name equipment.
