About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Sole Source Justification) submitted by the U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Prisons.
The acquisition seeks to procure the Casepoint eDiscovery platform as a sole source from Casepoint LLC, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of both FOIAXpress and Casepoint eDiscovery. The platform will enable the Bureau to connect directly into its current FOIAXpress FOIA processing environment while maintaining uninterrupted operational continuity. The Casepoint solution includes FOIAXpress AI Assist, Collaboration Portal, and Casepoint eDiscovery, providing electronic document discovery and review capabilities such as record ingestion, organization, search, filtering, review, redaction support, and production preparation. The requirement will be awarded as a Firm-Fixed Price task order (TOWD) consisting of a 12-month base period and four 12-month option periods. Market research confirmed that Casepoint LLC is the only responsible source capable of supplying the proprietary eDiscovery platform with the necessary features and native compatibility with the Bureau's existing FOIAXpress environment. No other sources expressed written interest in the acquisition. The anticipated cost has been determined fair and reasonable based on comparison with historical FOIAXpress pricing, review of Casepoint LLC's commercial pricing, and FSS contract pricing authority under RFO 538.7102-2(d)(2). The justification is conducted under RFO 6.103-1 (One Responsible Source) and 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), with certification by Contracting Officer Paul Brown and Supervisory FOIA PA Specialist Kara Christenson.
