1-1a SSJ - FIRING RANGE.pdf

Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)

Section A: General Contract Information

Contracting Activity: 71 CONF/LGC

Project/Program Name: 71 SFS/COMBAT ARMS RANGE AUGER SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

Purchase Request/Identification Number: AF FORM 9 PURCHASE F4C3SF6042AW01

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $34,440.00

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

To contract with Action Target to provide maintenance and cleaning for the auger system and replace the Dust Control Unit (DCU) filters, of the 71 SFS Firing Range. The 71 SFS Firing range is currently outfitted with Action Targets and parts/equipement is propriety.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source

The auger system for the 71 SFS Combat Arms Firing Range is in need of cleaning and an inspection of the motor by Action Target. The trough for the auger system must be removed and the debris cleaned from the system. The DCU filters are required to be replaced, to control the dust entering into the range control systems. Action Target is the sole manufacturer of the firing range equipment. Action Target does not sell parts to other dealers or distributors. Only authorized Factory Technicians are trained and qualified to work on Action Target products. All warranties will be voided if non-authorized personnel perform maintenance on the system.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Action Target is the sole company to manufacture, and perform maintenance on the system. They do not sell parts to 3rd party vendors, or contractors. All warranties will be voided is a company other than Action Targets performs maintenance on the system. I have conducted research IAW FAR 6.3 and was not able to find any companies who can perform maintenance on the equipment, other that Action Target. A letter received by Action Target states they are the only authorized maintainer of the equipment.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source Awards

At this time the only solution would be to completely change the backstops at the firing range, and that cost would exceed the cost of maintaining what is there now. Replacing the backstops would also require the range to be shut down for an extended period of time, and would impact the mission of the installation. At the present time, the Combat Arms personnel have contacted the Bio- Environmental section at Vance AFB, and are currently looking at a possible solution of sending Combat Arms personnel to attend a hazmat cleanup training class in an effort to clean the Firing Range themselves, however this does not involve any maintenance.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
