(CHECK ALL THAT APPLY AND COMPLETE) 1Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source (unique features, function of the item, etc.). Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources. This contract is being procured on a sole source basis due to the manufacturer's unique knowledge and the proprietary software/firmware this system utilizes. Market research by CS indicated no other source is capable of performing the preventive maintenance needed on the equipment identified in section (3) a above. 1A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is: (If FAR 8.405-6(a)(2)iii before posting. Do not include specific proprietary data.

Describe the equipment/function you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system. 0The new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order provided that the original order was placed in accordance with the applicable Federal Supply Schedule ordering procedures. The original order must not have been previously issued under sole source or limited source procedures. 0An urgent and compelling need exists, and following the ordering procedures would result in unacceptable delays.

(7) ANY OTHER FACTS SUPPORTING THE JUSTIFICATION: Prior history revealed the same conclusion that GE was the only viable source. No other facts supporting the justification. (8) A STATEMENT OF THE ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE AGENCY MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS THAT LED TO THE RESTRICTED CONSIDERATION BEFORE ANY SUBSEQUENT ACQUISITION FOR THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES IS MADE: No additional actions are to be taken due to the order being placed against a mandatory use contract.
