This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for court reporting services. The J&A justifies a sole source award to INRAEV Enterprises, Inc. dba ICR Rudiger & Green, located in Manassas, VA, for FY2025/2026.

The justification is based on ICR Rudiger & Green being the only contractor with an approved IT waiver from TSA for their systems. While market research identified four other capable companies, TSA IT will not approve waivers for other vendors at this time. The services include court reporting for depositions during litigation discovery and EEOC hearings. The current contract ends November 25, 2024, and TSA needs to continue services with the incumbent due to IT waiver limitations. The contract will be a firm fixed-price contract funded through Operations and Support – HQ Support General Expense. TSA indicates they will open the contract for competition once IT waivers can be obtained for future bidders.
