About this opportunity
The Department of State has awarded contract PR16275939 to Total Energies Marketing Ethiopia Share Company on a sole-source basis for the purchase of 25,000 liters of diesel fuel, with an estimated contract value of ETB 6,262,500.00 (approximately $38,827.29 USD).
The justification invokes 41 U.S.C. 4103 and 4106, implemented by FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), on the ground that only one awardee is capable of providing the required supplies at the required quality level. The Government of Ethiopia controls diesel fuel pricing nationwide, and Total Energies Marketing Ethiopia Share Company is identified as the sole supplier willing to provide bulk and retail fuel on credit terms acceptable to the Embassy. The fuel will support government and residential generator operations at Embassy Addis Ababa. The Contracting Officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable based on government-set market prices and historical pricing data tracked by the Embassy. The award is structured as a Firm-Fixed-Price contract. The document notes that ongoing market monitoring will occur to identify potential alternative sources in future acquisitions, though currently no alternative competitive path exists given the credit term requirements and government price controls in the local market.
