    The United States Department of the Interior is seeking justification to proceed with a non-competitive contract for Spectrum Engineering Technical Services Support provided by Spectrum Center Government Services, LLC. The need arises from a new mandate under the Presidential Memorandum focused on modernizing spectrum policy and ensuring effective radio frequency (RF) coordination within the 7/8 GHz band. The contract will encompass research and analysis critical for future use of spectrum resources, with a focus on enhancing interoperability within the DOI’s spectrum infrastructure. The anticipated contract spans multiple years, from August 15, 2025, to August 14, 2030, due to the unique qualifications of the proposed contractor, which possesses proprietary software essential for the analysis. The justification provided concludes that no other vendors meet the necessary criteria, and efforts have been made to ensure proper compliance with federal acquisition regulations. The contracting officer is tasked with ensuring fair pricing upon contract issuance, and no competing offers are expected due to the specialized nature of the work involved, confirming the necessity of sole source contracting for this requirement.
