About this file

This document is a sole source justification memorandum for a one-year contract extension to provide cell phone services at Camp Murray, Washington. The extension is needed until the completion of the Navy Spiral 4 contract, as the current Spiral 3 contract was not replaced before expiring. The services will continue under the incumbent contractor AT&T Wireless at an estimated cost of $84,227.66 using O&M funds. The justification cites keeping the same contractor will reduce burden and ensure no gaps in service during the transition to the new contract. The related federal opportunity is a special notice for AT&T services issued by the Department of the Army National Guard.
