    A15 - Class Justification of Antenna Sites FY2023-2028.pdf
    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has issued a Class Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) to facilitate the acquisition of access rights to locations for installing antennas critical for DEA operations. This JOFOC will be effective until September 30, 2028, acknowledging the need for multiple antenna sites across the U.S. and territories, with an expected aggregate value of $18.5 million over five years. The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) as the statutory authority, indicating that these services are available from only one source due to the unique requirements of optimal antenna placement for DEA communication networks. The document outlines efforts to survey potential sites and confirms that competitive procedures are not feasible due to the specificity and technical nature of the requirements. While most contracts under this JOFOC fall below the micro-purchase threshold, those exceeding $25,000 will be publicly synopsized as mandated. The contracting officer will ensure that all anticipated costs are fair and reasonable before any acquisition, highlighting the DEA's commitment to maintaining effective communication for operational efficiency. Overall, the JOFOC provides the DEA with the necessary flexibility to address its unique operational needs effectively.
