12 Month BRIDGE WEBSITE HOSTING - I.A.02 LimCompJust_SIGNED REDACTED final.pdf

This is a Justification Review Document for a single-source contract award by the National Guard Bureau. The procurement is for a 12-month bridge contract with an incumbent vendor for website hosting and student database services. The contracting activity is the USPFO-MS P&C under the RCTA requiring activity, with the contract action classified as a Follow-On Contract with Firm Fixed Price terms and Other funding type. The estimated price is redacted in the document.

The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) to support solicitation from a single source. The requirement was previously procured as a bridge contract dated July 10, 2025, with Bridge Contract competitive status. The Government determined that continued service with the existing vendor is the best course of action due to the vendor having developed the existing website and database tailored to the agency's ongoing data storage capabilities and online platform needs. RCTA had been attempting to procure this requirement through state-level agencies for four to six months, but the timeline was extended to allow additional development time. The document indicates no posting requirements and notes that efforts to obtain or increase competition, market research, and interested sources inquiries are not applicable as this is a bridge contract. The Contracting Officer certified on January 23, 2026, that the anticipated cost is Fair and Reasonable and that the justification is accurate and complete.
