About this file
This document is a recommendation for a sole source justification. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center seeks to purchase a Crowley Company C400 Advanced Aperture Card Scanner with annual software maintenance from DocPoint Solutions. The hardware and software are proprietary to Crowley Company, who developed and manufactures the products and will provide maintenance and support as specified in the attached estimate. Concurrence was received from the Enterprise License Management Team that the requested software is not currently available under an existing contract. Proceeding with DocPoint Solutions is recommended because they offer the best pricing as a Crowley Company recommended partner and Crowley Company is the only company that can support the proprietary products.
