About this file
This document is a Sole Source Rationale for a federal contract opportunity for the Harvard Senior Executive Fellows Course. The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) has identified an individual who needs to attend this course, which is only provided by Harvard University. The course was previously purchased using a Government Purchase Card, but the price has now exceeded that limitation. Market research indicates that Harvard is the sole provider of this specific executive training course, and no other sources can meet the government's requirements. The contract was awarded to the President and Fellows of Harvard College on August 7, 2024 under solicitation number HC104724P0004, but the award amount is not specified.

Harvard Senior Executive Fellows Course
Page 1 of 2 Pages
Sole Source Rationale For all Requirements under SAT
Upon the basis of the following justification, I, as the Contracting Officer, hereby approve this sole source rationale for the proposed contract action pursuant to the authority cited above as the particular service is essential to the Government's requirements, and market research indicates other companies' products or services do not meet, or cannot be modified to meet, the agency's needs.
1. REQUIRING AGENCY AND CONTRACTING ACTIVITY:
Requiring Agency:
DISA/J1
Contracting Activity:
DISA/DITCO/PS61
2. Procurement Title: Harvard Senior Executive Fellows Course
Funding Document Number:
Contract Number: HC104724P0004 Estimated Value:
3. Regulatory Authority: Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1) in accordance with 41 U.S.C.1901. Soliciting from a single source.
4. Description of Action: J1 identified an individual who is to be sent to the Harvard Senior Executive Fellows course. As this course is provided by Harvard as an accredited course under their standard course catalog, Harvard has been identified as the only provider of this course.
5. Proposed Sole Source Contractor: President and Fellows of Harvard College. 79 JFK ST Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138-5801, United States
6. Market Research: A review of the market research repository revealed no market research reports similar in nature. The acquisition team previously purchased this service using Government Purchase Card (GPC), but the price has increased above the GPC limitation. Additionally, DISA established contracts and GSA schedules were searched to see if any current contracts exist either internally or on GSA. However, it was identified that this course is provided solely by President and Fellows of Harvard College and no other source can provide this course.
Based on current market research, dated (January 2024-July 2024), it has been determined that only the aforementioned Harvard Senior Executive Program provided by President and Fellows of Harvard College, can fully meet the Government’s need.
