    The document outlines the justification for a single-source contract for the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) to acquire services from Infoblox for managing DNS and DHCP services. The objective is to centralize operations, enhance security, and ensure compliance with federal mandates such as CISA's Zero Trust Model.

It notes that market research confirms the availability of these services via the Federal Supply Schedules and states that competition is encouraged among value-added resellers (VARs) for proposals.
