A.1 APPROVED JUSTIFICATION FOR BRAND NAME ONLY JUSTIFICATION FOR SINGLE SOURCE AWARDS IAW FAR 13.106-1 (OVER MICRO-PURCHASE THRESHOLD ($3.5K) BUT NOT EXCEEDING THE SAT ($150K)) IAW FAR13.104, COs must promote competition to the maximum extent practicable to obtain supplies and services from the source whose offer is the most advantageous to the Government, considering the administrative cost of the purchase. When competition is not practicable, IAW FAR13.106-1(b), COs solicit from a single source for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. COs may solicit from one source if the CO determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). IAW FAR13.106-3(b)(3), COs are required to include additional statements explaining the absence of competition (see 13.106-1 for brand name purchases) if only one source is solicited and the acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold (does not apply to an acquisition of utility services available from only one source) or supporting the award decision if other than price-related factors were considered in selecting the supplier. This Justification when completed can be used to document single source awards IAW FAR13.106-3(b)(3). 1. ACQUISITION PLAN ACTION ID: VA246-17-AP-10840 A. PROJECT/TASK No.: N/A B. ESTIMATED AMOUNT: REDACTED 2. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE: Request for Brand Name Only Hopkins II endoscopic telescopes to be used in surgical cases at VA Medical Centers, located in Charlotte and Kernersville, North Carolina. 3. UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED: VAMC Salisbury currently has two different brands of sinus scopes nearing end of practical life (R. Wolf and Storz). These scopes are not interchangeable, and require different light cords and accessories. Having both types of scopes produces problems as it requires extra equipment and additional Biomedical Engineering repair capabilities. This Brand Name request for compatible Storz equipment will standardize surgical equipment at the Medical Center, allowing equipment and accessories to be interchangeable which in turn, simplifies surgical preparations. The most important reason for replacement of the R. Wolf scope is age of the equipment (over 10 years old); it is currently producing weaker light and blurrier images, negatively impacting patient care. Additionally, the equipment requires frequent repairs which are no longer cost effective. VAMC Salem is supplementing existing equipment. 4. DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH CONDUCTED AND RESULTS OR STATEMENT WHY IT WAS NOT CONDUCTED: Market research included internet searches and historical procurements for the same or similar product. One Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and one Small Business have been identified who may meet the requirement. A Brand-Name Only solicitation, set-aside 100% for Small Businesses (SB) is planned with award anticipated as a firm-fixed priced purchase order to the lowest technical price acceptable (LPTA) offeror, under FAR Part 13 simplified procedures. 5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. Note: COs are required to make a determination of price reasonableness IAW FAR 13.106-3. See the Commercial Supply and Service SOP for Price Reasonableness templates.
