The contract was issued under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) exceptions for other than full and open competition, specifically FAR 6.302-5(i) and required by FAR 6.303-2(b)(4). The award date for this contract was July 23, 2018, and it is designated as a HUBZone set-aside, ensuring the involvement of a qualified business located in historically underutilized business zones.

The contracting officer responsible is Donald H. Mills, and the point of contact for additional information is Reginald Johnson. This procurement bypassed competitive proposals due to the sole source nature as justified in the accompanying Justification and Approval document. The contract reflects the Department of Defense’s intent to maintain operational infrastructure while supporting HUBZone business participation.
