About this file

This is a Justification & Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition for simplified acquisitions over the micropurchase threshold up to SAT, dated June 8, 2026, with PR Number 44050467.

The procurement is for light towers to fully illuminate the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool for safety and security purposes during nighttime hours between June 10 and June 24. The justification for other than full and open competition is based on urgent and compelling circumstances, specifically an extremely short turnaround for needed delivery and a physical security concern at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Market research indicates that availability in the delivery area is very scarce due to the specialized nature of the product and other events in the area significantly reducing availability. No alternative offers or expressions of interest are documented. The contracting officer, Casey Winters, has certified that urgent and compelling circumstances exist and that the anticipated price will be evaluated for price reasonableness using market research, historical prices, an analysis of similarity, and/or commercial market comparison. The document was signed by Ian Pierson, EIMT Logistics Section Chief, on June 8, 2026, and approved by the Contracting Officer on June 9, 2026.
