Is this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan? Yes No

Contracting Activity: 19th Contracting Squadron, 642 Thomas Ave. Little Rock AFB AR 72099

Project/Program Name: 19 CPTS/FMA Sep 27-29 Family Retreat

Purchase Request / Local ID Number: F2S0404207A002

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $49,229.80

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

The contractor shall provide all necessary personnel, equipment, food, and hotel/venue accommodations for up to 44 military families for a family retreat. The contractor shall provide passes per room daily for hotel entertainment options and parking to be included at no extra charge. In addition, the contractor shall provide a retreat for families all under on roof so families can spend quality time together with on-site activities.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

19 CPTS/FMA requires a venue within a 1-hour radius of Grapevine, Texas for 44 families/150 individuals that will allow family connections and on-site family friendly activities.

Market research was conducted on family friendly "full experience" resorts in a 1-hour radius of Grapevine, Texas. The Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center, Embassy Suites by Hilton Grapevine DFW Airport, Hilton DFW Lakes Executive Conference Center were researched; while able to provide adequate lodging accommodations and conference centers, the venues do not offer on-site family activities.

Great Wolf Lodge is unique in it's ability to have lodging, gathering space, and on-site family friendly activities, which are necessary for resiliency retreats such as this requirement.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Previous requirements were referenced and no other venue can provide the required services within a 1-hour radius of Grapevine, Texas. In researching the websites of the aforementioned venues and available amenities listed therein, none showed a capability of providing the lodging, conference centers and on-site family activities. The Government intends to post an intent to sole-source on SAM.gov.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

The Government will continue to search for resorts or venues that can meet the requirement of on-site family activities with lodging and gathering space to provide training to families within the vicinity of Grapevine, Texas.
