    IA02 LSJ_RightFax SW Renewal_Redacted_16 April 2025_Redacted_16 April 2025.pdf
    The United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) seeks to renew a firm-fixed price contract for annual maintenance and technical support of RightFax Software under the justification for limited source procurement. This request aligns with FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B), emphasizing that only one source can provide the necessary specialized services due to the unique configuration of the equipment. OpenText RightFax Advantage FaxPulse serves as the software, offering centralized paperless faxing, with support primarily provided by authorized vendors. USAREC plans to publish a notice to facilitate competition but underscores that the specialized nature of the software necessitates the selection of an OpenText brand provider. Previously, attempts to explore alternative vendors yielded no bids during market research via RFQ# 519520 in January 2025. The procurement history includes past purchases through a Government Purchase Card, and cost analysis will deem the anticipated procurement costs fair without requiring certified pricing data. The approval for renewal is contingent upon available funds and prior authorization for such services. This renewal reflects USAREC's commitment to maintaining effective and secure communication systems within its operations.
