FAR 13.106-1(b)(1): For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), only one source reasonably available, urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand name, or industrial mobilization.

5. Reasons for Authority Cited:

a. The Johnson & Johnson Vision Excimer and Femtosecond laser systems are government-owned. The custom key cards with the license fee are proprietary and only available through the equipment OEM. Johnson & Johnson has verified that they are the sole providers of the products because the proprietary nature of the laser software, only the J&J Vision diagnostics, patient interfaces and treatment key cards can rightfully activate the capabilities of the systems.
