This is a summary of a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document for solicitation number 19JA8023D0003. The solicitation is seeking lodging services for a high-level delegation visiting Japan in May 2023 from the Department of State on a limited competition/sole source basis. The agency requires accommodations for 50 rooms per night for 10 nights at a hotel or hotels in close proximity to scheduled meetings and events in Tokyo. The performance period is May 1-10, 2023. The JOFOC cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) as the authority for this non-competitive procurement, as the agency requires lodging services involving unusual and compelling urgency due to the impending visit dates and need to reserve accommodations far in advance. The JOFOC was approved on January 15, 2023.
