A15 - Limited Source Documentation_RED.pdf

This is a Sole Source Documentation form under FAR Part 13 for a purchase order exceeding $10,000 but not exceeding $250,000.

The contracting officer is procuring Skydio R10 drones for law enforcement operations and officer safety purposes. The estimated total amount is $158,340.00, with a delivery date of August 30, 2026, and this is not a recurring requirement. The justification for sole source procurement is that the Skydio R10's integrated, autonomous, 360-degree collision-avoidance capability is essential for safe operation in unknown conditions and locations. No other U.S.-based manufacturer currently offers a comparable all-around 360-degree AI collision avoidance system with the same level of autonomy. Market research confirmed that other U.S.-manufactured drones lack equivalent capabilities and cannot be modified within acceptable timeframes or costs. NDAA compliance was a factor in the evaluation, and Atlantic Diving Supply is identified as the only authorized reseller for government and defense procurement. The contracting officer has determined that only one source is reasonably available and certifies the price is fair and reasonable. The documentation was signed by Derek Covatch (Telecommunications Specialist), contract specialist Kenny Douangmala, and contracting officer Kenny Douangmala on April 13, 2026 and April 28, 2026 respectively.
