This document is a Sole Source Justification form from NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers for Dell EMC Unity Server support services. The procurement is for extended support and warranty of Dell EMC Unity Server (Asset #4PMPJM3 & 4P1RJM3), which includes specific support services like 4-hour 7x24 Onsite Service, Technical Support and Assistance, Software Support Maintenance, and SSD Medium Capacity Add-Ons. The document indicates that these Dell servers are the primary hardware for the SRF Storage Area Network (SAN) and require extended support through Dell and authorized resellers, with the services only provisionable by Dell to maintain warranty compliance. The justification notes that competition is precluded due to the specific hardware requirements and proprietary nature of the support services, with the government confirming that this represents the minimum requirements needed.
