    HC102825R0070 RFQ Letter Attachment 1 - Redacted Software Class JA.pdf
    This document is a Class Justification and Approval (J&A) for an exception to fair opportunity under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 16.5, specifically for brand-name software support. The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) requires this J&A to continue mission-critical software support for previously purchased proprietary, commercial off-the-shelf software already integrated into their existing infrastructure. The modification (MOD 1) increases the current ceiling of the J&A to ensure continued ability to renew software licenses and support until December 31, 2025. The justification is based on the essential nature of the particular brand-name products, as market research indicates other products cannot meet or be modified to meet agency needs due to interoperability and proprietary restrictions. The scope is limited to software support, including subscription renewals, and does not cover new software licenses. Procurements will be awarded to authorized resellers, utilizing various contract vehicles, with price reasonableness determined at the individual order level through competition among resellers. The agency will continue to explore alternative solutions and promote competition where possible, while acknowledging the current necessity of brand-name support for existing systems.
