    Liberty Center single_source_justification.pdf
    The document is a Single Source Justification for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for services at the Liberty Center in Box Elder, SD, serving members attached to Ellsworth AFB, SD. The estimated cost is $100,000.00 for a five-year period from October 2022 to October 2027. The justification for a single source, the Liberty Center (operated by the South Dakota Ellsworth Development Authority or SDEDA), is based on its unique proximity (less than 1 mile) to Ellsworth AFB and its comprehensive 58,000-square-foot facility, which includes an indoor track, court spaces, a studio, and a distinguished visitor space. Market research confirmed no other capable businesses with active SAM registration were found in the immediate commuting area. SDEDA is also a SAM.gov registered HUBZone firm. The contracting officer, Jonathan L. Allen, determined that only a single source is reasonably available, as per FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The BPA will be assessed annually via market research to confirm if a single source is still required.
