DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Network Contracting Office (NCO) 22 335 E Germann Road, Suite 301, Gilbert, AZ 85297-2919 ATTACHMENT 1: Single Source Justification Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C262-23-AP-2589 Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 22, VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System (VAGLAHCS), Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center (SACC); 2237: 691- 23-2-5090-0655. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: This requirement is for emergency boiler plant back-up generator repairs, to maintain this critical equipment that is essential during a power outage, at the Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center (SACC). Total amount for this requirement is $298,282.57. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The emergent nature of this requirement left no time to compete pricing. An emergency

purchase in accordance with FAR 13.106-1 Other Than Full and Open Competition is essential. In the event of a power outage, the main boiler plant will have no power. Delaying award would cause irreparable harm to the government, and veterans being serviced at the VAGLAHCS. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: An Emergency Authorization was issued by the Services Branch Chief 3, Network Contracting Office (NCO) 22, Helena A. Roba, to proceed with the services on 02/06/2023, using Veteran Electrical Power Systems, Inc. It has been determined that a power outage would cause a loss of power to the boiler plant. There is only one back-up generator, the one needing repairs, and so an outage would cause irreparable harm to the Government, VA Employees, and the veterans we serve. Approvals in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b). 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.
