This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from the Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration awards an unknown vendor a contract to lease existing fiber optic cable infrastructure at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Washington Dulles International Airport through 2021. The justification cites the need to award noncompetitively due to the vendor's ownership of the existing fiber optic cable infrastructure and technical expertise, as introducing a new vendor would compromise security and be impractical. Contract 70T01021P7600N002 for an unknown dollar amount was granted on May 27, 2021 to provide this existing fiber optic cable infrastructure and associated maintenance services through the end of the calendar year.
