D--Redacted J&A for W91RUS13RPACTNOSC/Active Directory (AD) support for the Pacific Theater Network Operations and Security Center (PAC-TNOSC)

This contract pertains to the Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole source acquisition conducted under the authority of Title 10 United States Code 2304 (c)(1) and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, which allows procurement from only one responsible source when no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's requirements. The contract is specifically for Active Directory (AD) support services for the Pacific Theater Network Operations and Security Center (PAC-TNOSC), indicating a critical IT support function in maintaining network security and operations for this Defense Department entity. The solicitation number is W91RUS13RPACTNOSC, and the action was posted on June 19, 2013. The agency responsible is the Department of Defense, operating through the W6QK Acc-apg Contracting Center Software Sector located in Fort Huachuca, Arizona. The NAICS code associated with this contract is 541513, which corresponds to computer facilities management services, aligning with the technical nature of the AD support. The lack of a set-aside designation suggests this is not reserved for small businesses or any special socioeconomic category. The justification for a sole source procurement underscores the unique nature of the services required, likely due to specialized technical knowledge or mission-critical capabilities that cannot be obtained through competitive means.
