    sole_source_justification (Including Brand Name)_HP Maintenance_Redacted.pdf
    The document outlines a Sole Source Justification for a one-year hardware and software maintenance contract for existing equipment used by the F-22 Combined Test Force. The procurement is funded through R&D appropriation "3600." An initial Request for Information (RFI) posted in December 2024 yielded no responses despite several vendor inquiries; thus, a Request for Quotation (RFQ) was created. With no quotes received, the requirement will now be posted as a small business set-aside on sam.gov to gather open market offers. It is determined by the contracting officer that the award will be made to the vendor in the government’s best interest. Notably, market research quotes were received from HPE and World Wide Technologies in response to the RFI, but ultimately no viable quotes were received initially, indicating a competitive market landscape with opportunities for small businesses.
