CONTRACTING WITHOUT PROVIDING FOR FULL OR OPEN COMPETITION (INCLUDING BRAND-NAME) DETERMINATION The determination by the Government to award a contract without providing for full and open competition is based upon the market research conducted. Specifically, only Broadway Services, Inc. is capable of meeting the needs of this requirement because the NIDA IRP is located on the campus of the Johns Hopkins University Bayview Campus (JHUBC) and Broadway Services, Inc. is the only contractor offering parking at or near this location. The JHUBC is located in zip code 21224. Broadway Services, Inc. has offices in zip code 21205 but offers parking within zip code 21224 on the JHUBC. No other companies provide parking within zip code 21224 and the next closest zip code, 21205 has no parking services other than Broadway Services, Inc., either. Accordingly, there is no other contractor capable of providing parking to NIDA IRP employees and Broadway Services, Inc. is the only capable contractor.
