However, only one (1) vendor, Arne Freefall, submitted a proposal. After receipt of only one (1) proposal, two (2) additional vendors who had originally expressed interest in the solicitation, were contacted. It was determined that neither vendor could provide the extent of services required at the locations necessary in the requirement. With that, Arne Freefall Solutions, LLC was awarded N0018918D0034.

Solutions, LLC is the sole source capable of providing the required services.
