This document is a Sole Source Justification form for the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Cleveland Site Support Operations. DFAS requires an off-site venue to host All Hands Meetings and large events within a 0.25-mile radius of the Anthony J. Celebrezze Federal Office Building. The Cleveland Public Auditorium was selected as the sole source venue due to its proximity, capacity to seat 2,800 guests, and lack of alternative venues within walking distance. The contract is for the period 1/1/2025 - 12/31/2029, with market research confirming the auditorium as the only suitable local venue capable of accommodating the event requirements. The Contracting Officer determined this procurement is in the best interest of the government and will seek to promote competition in future acquisitions through thorough market research.
