This procurement will be conducted as a sole source acquisition under FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, based on authority for other than full and open competition due to only one responsible source being able to fulfill the requirements. No competitive quotes or proposals will be solicited, and no formal Request for Quote (RFQ) will be issued.
