The document outlines the Justification and Approval (J&A) for contracting without full and open competition, specifically for contract number 2025-COP-0025. It cites various legal authorities under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) that permit such actions, notably when there is only one viable source due to unique capabilities or urgent circumstances. Contracts over $250,000 and those under simplified acquisition procedures, as well as orders under GSA schedules and multiple award contracts, are addressed. Additionally, it details the contracting officer’s due diligence in determining price fairness, responsibilities, and the best value for the government. Efforts were made to solicit interest from potential sources, but no additional efforts were noted outside prior market research. The document also includes necessary approvals from relevant authorities, while noting that competition may be limited for reasons like national security or urgency. This J&A process emphasizes compliance with regulations and the careful consideration of competition and source selection, ensuring the government’s needs are met efficiently while adhering to legal requirements.
