6 SF-1013 Brand Name Justification_PSPDFKit_Redacted.pdf

This document is a SF 1013 Justification & Approval for Far Subpart 13.5 Sole Source Acquisition for the Department of the Treasury. The acquisition involves renewing PSPDFKit software licenses for the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), Enterprise Applications (EA), and Enterprise Content Management (ECM). The renewal is for a base period from 9/01/2025 - 8/31/2026 with three optional 12-month extension periods through 8/31/2029.

The Treasury's Mobile Briefing Book relies on PSPDFKit as a mission-critical application that enables secure, mobile-friendly PDF annotation and rendering for senior leadership. The software is used to securely assess and annotate sensitive briefing materials on mobile devices. After market research, OCIO determined PSPDFKit is the only tool available for the PowerApps platform, with unique features like enhanced functionality and performance optimization. The total estimated contract value is $356,351.55 for the base period and option years, and the acquisition is being processed as a sole-source action since the vendor (PSPDF US, Inc.) does not have resellers and is the exclusive source of the product.
