The document titled "Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)" discusses the protocols and rationale for justifying a single-source procurement process within federal government contracts. It outlines the need for such justification, typically when only one supplier is deemed capable of fulfilling specific requirements. The emphasis is placed on ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and maintaining transparency in the procurement process. The justification process entails detailing the unique capabilities of the chosen supplier that other potential vendors cannot replicate. This document serves to record and justify decisions made to engage in streamlined acquisition practices, facilitating efficient procurement while adhering to necessary oversight and accountability measures. The content suggests that this approach is crucial for specific acquisitions where sole-source contracts are appropriate to meet federal standards effectively.

The Air Force Test Center (AFTC) at Holloman AFB, New Mexico, has announced its intention to award a sole source purchase order to GoEngineer LLC for the procurement of CamWorks Software for the 846th Test Squadron. Following thorough market research, GoEngineer LLC was identified as the only vendor capable of meeting the product's specifications. This acquisition falls under the NAICS code 513210, with a small business size standard of $47 million. The anticipated award date is September 27, 2024. Although the government plans to proceed with a sole source procurement as permitted by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), other interested vendors may submit capability statements, bids, proposals, or quotations by September 20, 2024. All submissions must be sent electronically to the designated contracting officer, Mr. Brett Moore. This notice serves to inform vendors of the intent and does not solicit competitive proposals.
