Auto Repair JA - Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) filed by the Department of the Air Force in April 2026.

The 772nd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron at JBSA-Kelly Annex, San Antonio, Texas seeks authority to acquire electronic access to MOTOR Auto Repair Source through a sole-source purchase order with EBSCO Information Services, LLC. The acquisition will provide Air Force Libraries with do-it-yourself service and repair information for domestic and imported cars, SUVs, vans, and light trucks to support military personnel's morale, welfare, and recreation programs in accordance with DoD 1015.10. The contract vehicle is a Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order under the simplified procedures authority of RFO 12.201-1 (41 U.S.C. 1901). The performance period consists of a 12-month base effort with three optional 12-month periods, for a total estimated contract value that is redacted in the document. The justification identifies EBSCO Information Services, LLC (Cage Code: 913W2, UEI: FCNUXYEM9AE9) as the only contractor capable of meeting the requirement, as EBSCO is the exclusive creator, publisher, copyright holder, and distributor of all MOTOR Auto Repair content. Market research, including a Sources Sought Notice issued on SAM.gov from July 17-29, 2026, confirmed no other vendors can provide authorized access to this proprietary content. The contracting officer certifies the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable, and AFSVCCL will continue monitoring the market for alternative sources prior to the next contractual renewal.
