About this file

This is a Justification for Sole Source (Simplified Procedures - MPT ≤ $AT) document for Purchase Request/Document number 1301398456.

The contracting activity, NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk Contracting Department Fleet Directorate, is procuring software and mobile app services on a sole source basis from Bridge Platform Holdings (CAGE Code 81PV0). The STRIKE readiness and rehabilitation staff requires software and a mobile application capable of designing, delivering, and monitoring individual physical training programs for military personnel in local and deployed locations. The application must enable sailors to record videos and notes of exercises performed, include a daily wellness questionnaire tracking sleep quality, mood, energy level, diet quality, hydration status, and soreness levels, with results viewable on both mobile and web platforms. The estimated total contract price is redacted, and the performance period extends for one base year (01 September 2026 – 31 August 2027) plus four optional 12-month years through 31 August 2031.

The sole source justification rests on two primary grounds: system compatibility and proprietary rights. BridgeAthletic is the only training application software that partners with SmartaBase, the Athletic Management Software (AMS) currently utilized by the STRIKE facility. The application is required to filter data to SmartaBase and is the only platform accommodating the form, fit, and function of the existing STRIKE data system; without it, the SmartaBase program would be inoperable and sailors would fail to meet mission requirements. Additionally, BridgeAthletic is a proprietary copyrighted data platform. Market research conducted per FAR Part 10, including internet searches and review of previous contract N0018923P0490, confirmed that BridgeAthletic is the sole training application software providing the requisite synergy with SmartaBase for physical data filtering, management, and training prescription.
