Justification and Approval for: Single Source Brand Name

1. REQUISITION NUMBER: ITC-6100-OCIO-26-079 ESTIMATED TOTAL VALUE: $0.00

2. Description of supplies or Services Required to Meet Agency:

Digital survey and website application feedback service with FedRAMP certification for administration and distribution of surveys.

3. Justification for Limited Competition:

Service is identified as the only product providing a comprehensive enterprise survey platform that meets requirements for advanced survey design, reporting and analytics, accessibility, secure data collection, and centralized administration. With FedRAMP authorization, the platform has the security and privacy controls needed to support the management of survey data.

It provides the flexibility necessary to accommodate a broad range of survey types, audiences, and organizational use cases within a single managed environment. Based on the agency’s security, technical, functional, and administrative requirements, other solutions do not provide the same combination of capabilities without additional integrations or customizations.
