1.5.1 Sole Source Sole Brand Justification Form - Redacted.pdf

This is a Sole Source/Sole Brand Justification document from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security FEMA Region VI, dated November 4, 2025, for Requisition Number TX00022Y2026T. The document justifies a sole source procurement for utilities services including trash, recycling, water, wastewater, and electricity for the FEMA Region 6 Facility located in Denton, Texas.

The justification asserts that the requested vendor is the only available provider of these utility services in the geographic area. The document indicates that electricity and water are essential for sustaining facility operations at the Region 6 location. The procuring activity checked the "Sole Source" option, indicating that the item or service is available from only one vendor and is not sold through distributors. The justification states that no other vendors were evaluated or available in the area capable of providing these services, as municipal utility services in a specific geographic location are inherently monopolistic in nature. No alternative vendors, brands, models, contact information, or pricing quotes were provided, consistent with the nature of utility service procurement tied to a specific facility location.
