March 2018 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY Page 1 of 1

Section A: General Contract Information

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

Contracting Activity: 4th Contracting Squadron

Project/Program Name: Gettysburg Leadership Experience

Purchase Request/Identification Number: F3T3CE9100AW02

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $28,200.00

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

This requirement is to acquire a leadership course from FCC Services titled The Gettysburg Leadership Experience. This course has been approved by HAF/A1DI in the Senior Leader Development Program Portfolio (SLDPP). The Gettysburg Leadership Experience is a design program which blends together both the sequence of events which took place during the Battle of Gettysburg with contemporary leadership behaviors. The program is constructed on the foundation and styles associated with Transformational Leadership. The program is divided into three thematic sections, which correspond with the three days of the battle.

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

PFCC Service's Gettysburg Leadership Module is a DoD Sponsored professional leadership course. To ensure consistency and to be in compliance with the approved AF SLDPP this is the only company approved for this service as of now. An intent to sole source was posted on FBO.gov and received one interested vendor. However, due to the aforementioned reason, we determine the company would not be capable of ensuring the consistency of material, which is proprietary to FCC Services.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

FCC Services is the only agency conducting experiential learning on the battlefield at Gettysburg, the course of instruction is the intellectual property of FCC Services.

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

HAF/A1DI is annually updating their SLDPP with the newest update coming in June 2019. These updates will ensure a rotation of approved vendors for professional development services.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
