This document is a Single Source Justification form from the U.S. Department of State's Office of the Procurement Executive for a sole source contract with the Network of Centers for Civic Engagement (NCCE). The contract is valued at $218,690 and will provide end-to-end procurement, financial management, and compliance oversight for nine American Spaces in Georgia. The contract is broken into two main components: $161,900 for American Spaces programming, technology, multimedia, promotional items, advertising, design, and furnishing (charged to FY 2025 American Spaces Support Funds), and $56,790 for procurement, accounting, financial management, and compliance services.

The justification emphasizes NCCE's unique qualifications, citing their proven track record of managing American Spaces funding, successful grant administration, and deep institutional knowledge of U.S. government financial regulations. The document highlights that NCCE was selected through a competitive process in Fiscal Year 2023 and remains the only responsible source for this requirement. The contract will involve drafting approximately 150 supplier contracts and 600 service contracts annually, managing up to 60 projects, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations, and maintaining comprehensive procurement and financial documentation.
