The procurement is for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Special Firearms and Devices (SFFD) and Regional Offices (ROs) to acquire recording capability for phone lines using agent or informant smartphones. The required services include the ability to record smartphones as a powerful body wire with no limits on the number of listeners or distances, software applications supporting three-way controlled calls using any phone, and cloud-based administrative accounts with on-site training and pre-paid usage credits. The period of performance is July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The DAC Number is D-26-SF-0083.

The contracting officer has determined that only one source is reasonably available to supply the required services. The justification is based on the Callyo system, which has been tested, vetted, and approved by the DEA's HQ/IST for use with the Callyo Law Enforcement Server option and has been vetted by multiple local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. Market research conducted by the Office of Investigative Technology (OIT) through GSA Advantage and Open Market determined that no other comparable products meet the requirements or can be modified to do so. The determination identifies Callyo as the sole source vendor for this specialized law enforcement recording need. Signature blocks are provided for the customer, contract specialist, and contracting officer.
