The document outlines the procedure for sole-source acquisitions costing between $10,000 and $250,000, as per federal regulations. A Limited Sources Justification is mandated when soliciting fewer than three vendors or for specific brand-name specifications. In this instance, laboratory supplies needed for chemists were procured through sole sourcing from Agilent, deemed the only vendor able to meet all requirements at the best value. Agilent was compared with another supplier, Neta Scientific, which could not provide all necessary items more competitively. This justification will be posted publicly in accordance with regulations for transparency. The estimated total for this acquisition is $82,805, with a delivery date projected for August 31, 2024. The document requires signatures from the contracting officer and related personnel, ensuring accountability and adherence to pricing fairness standards.
