COMPETITION IMPRACTICABLE CATEGORY (Check applicable box, attach documentation or provide explanation below.)
Maricopa County Procurement Code MC1-351 states: “Competition Impracticable” means an acquisition where, competition is 
impractical because of standardization, warranty, or other factors as approved by the Board of Supervisors. 
NOTE:  The following are unlikely to be sufficient Competition Impracticable justifications: 
• Personal or department preference for a product or vendor
• Department perception that the vendor is the best qualified (this should be determined through a competitive process)
• Lack of department planning resulting in limited time to conduct a competitive procurement
• Special incentive or deal offered (can be assessed in open and competitive solicitation)
• Department  convenience

THIS IS A COMPETITION IMPRACTICABLE PROCUREMENT BECAUSE (attach additional page if needed): 
FCI Construction was issued a task against contract #190063-JOC to complete this project. 
The complexity of the systems, scopes of work, and changes necessary to complete the project 
has resulted in an extended schedule and task modifications after the expiration of the original 
JOC contract.  The task modifications are directly related to the scope of work being performed 
by FCI Construction and the warranty they will provide for the project. Since the work is 
required to be sequenced and cohesive with the other work on the project, it is necessary to 
have FCI perform the work.  
Accordingly, it has been reasonably determined that it is impracticable, unnecessary, and 
contrary to the public interest to have another firm perform this work.
N/A
FCI Construction is a JOC contractor cost estimating under the JOC contract procurement
requirements for subcontractors, including the disclosure of multiple bids, and/ or detailed price
breakdowns which have been evaluated and validated by the Facilities Management Capital
Project Manager.
