    A15 - Sole Source Documentation_Re-dacted.pdf
    This Sole Source Documentation outlines the justification for a sole source acquisition of software maintenance essential for operating web-based data entry forms related to DEA regulations. The procurement, valued between $10,000 and $250,000, involves using Kofax software, which requires maintenance from Tungsten, DRT's exclusive service provider for Kofax. A market analysis through NASA SEWP indicated limited competition, as Infocap is the only registered Kofax reseller for the DEA, further affirming that Kofax's structured licensing restricts access to required services. The Contracting Officer concludes that only one source can fulfill the government's needs, thus supporting this sole source justification, which will be publicly posted as required for orders exceeding $25,000. Overall, this document emphasizes the necessity of compliance within federal acquisition regulations while demonstrating the limited options due to exclusive supplier arrangements.
