About this file

This Limited Sources Justification document outlines a sole-source acquisition for LED billboard advertising by the 132d Wing Recruiting office of the Iowa National Guard. The document justifies procuring digital billboard advertising exclusively from Varsity Group for multiple high schools including Ankeny, Ankeny Centennial, Dallas Center-Grimes Community School District, Prairie City Monroe, and Valley. The acquisition is being conducted under the Multiple Award Schedule Program, with the specific authority cited as 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B) for "only one source capable of providing level of quality required".

Market research confirmed Varsity Group as the sole vendor for gym/stadium LED billboard advertising in these Iowa high schools, after conducting online research and directly calling multiple schools to verify. The contract is dated 1-May-2025, with the justification signed by Kaylee L. Larson (Recruiting Office Manager), Cody R. Benjamin (Contracting Officer), and reviewed by Stanley J. Kowalczyk (USPFO for Iowa). The document indicates the agency will work to increase competition in future requirements when prudent, acknowledging the current limited-source nature of the procurement.
