    This document serves as a Class Justification and Approval (J&A) for an exception to full and open competition under federal acquisition regulations, specifically for brand name software support procurement by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). The purpose is to secure continued support for proprietary software already integrated into existing infrastructure, ensuring essential updates and maintenance until December 31, 2025.

Historical utilization data guided a ceiling increase for the required software support, and procurement will largely utilize established channels such as NASA SEWP and GSA for competitive awards among authorized resellers. The document includes details on the contracting party's responsibilities, market research rationale, and fair price determination.
