    BIA Buy Indian Act Deviation Form_Jan 2022_508 Compliant.pdf
    The memorandum outlines an approved deviation from the Buy Indian Act for the Indian Health Service (IHS) regarding urgent boiler repair services at the Chinle Comprehensive Health Care Facility (CCHCF). Due to a natural gas leak, the facility, which has declared a Code GREEN, requires immediate contractor support to troubleshoot and repair malfunctioning steam and heating boilers, critical for maintaining operational safety as per Joint Commission and NFPA requirements. The request, valued at $17,268.83, justifies bypassing standard procurement procedures due to the compelling urgency and lack of quotes from Indian Economic Enterprises (IEE) or Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE). Consequently, the IHS determined that no reasonable expectation exists for competitive offers, necessitating this deviation. The documentation aims to ensure proper authorization and oversight while providing emergency services to restore full functionality and safety to the facility, emphasizing compliance with federal regulations for socioeconomic programs under FAR and IHM guidelines.
