    This memorandum outlines the justification for using other than full and open competition for the procurement of a NASH Pumps VECTRA GL60 LRVAC DI (NASH U45) medical vacuum pump, critical for the operation of the Comfort during missions. According to FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), competition may be limited if only one source is available due to factors like urgency or proprietary rights.
