About this file
This document is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Determination Memorandum for Limited Sources Acquisitions under $350,000, used to justify limiting competition to a single source or brand name.
The proposed contractor is Patterson Dental, and the requirement is for dental equipment to provide limited dental treatment to service members during Physical Health Assessment (PHA) and Sexual Assault Response (SRP) events. The customer, SSG Jon Conklin, has identified Patterson Dental as the sole source based on geographic location constraints and the requirement for qualified technicians to provide on-site service within 24 hours. The justification notes that while other small businesses can provide similar equipment, Patterson Dental is the only provider capable of delivering and servicing the equipment with qualified technicians within the specified geographic area and timeframe required for the SRP requirement. The market research indicates limited availability of providers meeting these specific service and logistics requirements. The contracting officer, Jeremy Greenstein, approved this brand name justification under FAR 16.505(a)(4) on August 6, 2026, determining that the acquisition is in the government's best interest. No statement of actions to overcome competitive barriers was provided, indicating acceptance of the current sole-source approach.
