    SS Justification Redacted.pdf
    The document, titled "Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)," is a government file from April 2021. It is marked as "CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION." The document's purpose is to provide justification for a single-source acquisition, likely within the context of federal government RFPs, federal grants, or state and local RFPs where simplified acquisition procedures are followed. The repeated labeling of the document as "CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION" on each page emphasizes its sensitive but unclassified nature, indicating that while it contains information that needs to be protected, it does not rise to the level of classified national security information. The brevity of the document suggests it is a cover page or a very concise justification statement.
