About this file
This is a Sole Source Statement for a simplified acquisition under $350,000 submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency Contracting Services Office (DCSO) in Richmond, Virginia. The contracting officer is Kelly Moore, and the requiring activity is the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), specifically the Defense Contract Audit Institute (DCAI) Branch Chief Toni Hawkins-Scribner. The acquisition is restricted to PowerTrain, Inc. (CAGE 1ZLY7) as the sole source vendor.
DCAA requires purchase of PowerTrain's course repository hosting, licensing, and ancillary support services. The software functions as a centralized digital library for DCAA training materials, course storage, and accessibility, with technical management support limited to approximately 50 hours. The purchase order covers one base year with performance estimated to commence on August 1, 2026. The justification for sole source procurement cites PowerTrain's development of a custom, proprietary data repository over the past decade that only PowerTrain can support due to its proprietary nature. Previous contracts were awarded by external DoD agencies with limited contract history availability. The statement notes that DCAA is concurrently developing organic storage capability using SharePoint, anticipated for completion within one year, making this interim sole source award necessary to maintain continued access to training materials and course data during the transition period. Both the technical/requirements certification by Toni Hawkins-Scribner and the contracting officer certification by Kelly Moore are dated 06/04/2026. The independent government cost estimate and pricing details are redacted in the document.
