This is a Single Source Justification document from the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) for a software license procurement under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) Simplified Acquisitions. The procurement is for Quality Training Systems' (QTS) proprietary Quality Training Database (QTD) software suite, including QTD Deluxe, Test Development Tool, Employee Portal, and Remote Hosting modules for the Colorado River Storage Project.

The justification explains that QTS is the sole manufacturer and distributor of the required software, with a firm fixed price period of performance from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. WAPA currently uses these systems across their headquarters and four regional offices for dispatcher training and employee records management. The document notes that switching to a different system would require significant time and resources for setup, training, and data migration. The recommended source is Quality Training Systems, located in Chicago, IL. Limited market research was conducted since QTS is the only available source for this proprietary system.
