FY26 C5ISRT (MORS) Training - SSJA Redacted_Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for a federal contract action. The contracting activity is ACC/AMIC/PKJ for the FY26 CSISRT Training project. The estimated contract cost is redacted in the document.

The acquisition requires a specialized, five-day Command, Control, Computing Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Targeting (C5ISRT) data analysis training course for up to 20 government employees, to be conducted at the University of Mary Washington/Dahlgren Campus. The service includes all instruction, training materials, and classroom facility costs. The contract structure includes a one-year base period with two potential one-year options. The justification identifies the Military Operations Research Society (MORS) as the sole proposed source, possessing unique capabilities to deliver an integrated hands-on training course combining Python and R-Analytic analysis tailored to the "Critical Tools and Emerging Trends" curriculum. Market research confirmed that while other vendors offer courses on individual topics, none provide a pre-existing, customizable curriculum blending these specific technical subjects in the manner required. A competing vendor, TONEX, was contacted but confirmed inability to meet customization requirements. The contracting officer determined under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) that only MORS could provide the uniquely tailored training meeting the government's specific technical and mission-related needs without significant modifications. To preclude future single-source awards, the requiring activity will conduct continuous market surveillance to identify new vendors or expanded capabilities from existing sources prior to exercising any option years.
