Market research showed that no alternative vendors could meet compatibility requirements.

The anticipated costs have been deemed fair and reasonable by the Contracting Officer, emphasizing a focus on maintaining compatibility and operational integrity within the existing ELMR system. This document reflects standard governmental practices regarding non-competitive procurement while supporting military operational needs.
