Description
Signed Sole Source Justification with Title Guaranty Escrow Services, Inc. Central Federal Lands intends to issue a single sole-source FFP Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with Title Guaranty Escrow Services, Inc. (herein Title Guaranty), DUNs 077665750/CAGE Code 38TW1 to provide acquisition services including payments, supporting execution of right of way land easements. The land easements are necessary to support new construction of several bridge projects in the State of Hawaii per executed Memorandum of Agreement between the FHWA Central Federal Lands Highway Division, FHWA Hawaii Division, and the Hawaii Department of Transportation. Title Guaranty was subcontracted through a previously awarded IDIQ contract with the CFLHD to provide right of way acquisition services. As necessary to complete execution of the conveyance documents, on behalf of the Hawaii Department of Transportation, conveyance document closing and compensation payment to landowners is yet to be completed. Given the time sensitivity with execution of the conveyance documents, the Government is electing to sole source a contract directly with Title Guaranty as necessary to complete the acquisition services while ensuring that the best interest of the Government is satisfied. Though other companies can provide escrow services, at this stage in development of the conveyance documentation, obtaining these capabilities from other sources would be repetitive of previously completed work resulting in undue delays and excessive costs to the Government. The specific knowledge and technical competence of Title Guaranty will satisfy the Government's requirement to advance easement execution to conclusion while maintaining continuity with Title Guaranty's previous efforts and experience on this project. The statutory authority permitting the acquisition of this requirement by other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. §253(c)(1); Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) citation is 13.106-1(b)(2), and pursuant to FAR subpart 13.5 titled "Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items." This BPA requirement will be issued as a base plus 4 option year agreement using FAR Part 12. This notice of intent to sole source is for informational purposes only in accordance with FAR 5.201 and not a request for quotes; therefore, no solicitation document exists for this procurement.
