- NOTICE OF SOLE SOURCE AWARD - CONTRACT # FA4418-13-P-0017 (In accordance with FAR 6.305) THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of a sole source award under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c) (1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1: Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The Reference Number is FA4418-13-P-0017. The 628th Contracting Squadron, 101 E. Hill Blvd., Charleston AFB SC, awarded a contract for telephone service for Short Stay to Home Telephone Company of Moncks Corner, SC 29461-3949. Market research and information gathered determined this company to be the only source for this requirement. The Justification for the Sole Source Award is as follows: In accordance with FAR 6.303-2: (1) Agency and Activity: 628 Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Charleston, SC. (2) Nature of the action being approved: Sole source acquisition. (3) The purpose of this acquisition is to provide telephone service for Short Stay. (4) Justification Rationale: IAW FAR 6.302-1(a)(2): Only one source is capable of responding due to the unique or specialized nature of the work. (5) Demonstration of Unique Qualifications: Home Telephone Company is the exclusive service provider in the area for leased local exchange access for commercial network service and outside infrastructure support at this location. (6) Description of Solicitation Efforts: Local market research was performed, however Home Telephone Company has an exclusive agreement with the municipality. IAW FAR 5.201, this sole source notice will be posted on the Government-wide Point of Entry (FedBizOpps). (7) The contracting officer has determined that the anticipated price to the Government will be fair and reasonable based on comparison of prices between vendors who provide similar services. (8) Description of market research: GSA Advantage and SAM were queried to locate sources. While there are other sources who provide a similar service, there are none able to meet the Government's requirement. (9) Other supporting facts: Due to the fact that Home Telephone Company has exclusive rights to the area, there are no other sources capable of providing the requirement. (10) Interested Sources: Home Telephone Company was the only source that expressed interest in the requirement. (11) Actions to prevent barriers that may lead to restricted consideration in the future: Continue monitoring the market for sources that may be able to meet the requirement in the future. (12) This justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
