This document is a Source Selection Information form for a sole-source acquisition by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Contract Services Directorate. The agency seeks to procure a specific MRB3060 Mail Screening Booth to enhance mail screening operations, with a focus on critical safety and operational requirements. The screening booth features a patented symmetrical airflow design, integrated HEPA filtration, carbon filtration systems, diagnostic safety interlocks, and ergonomic work surfaces.

The contract period is from 8/01/2025 to 7/31/2026, with options for four additional years of support services. A Request for Information (RFI) was issued on SAM.gov, but no alternative vendors responded. Market research confirmed this is the only vendor capable of meeting the agency's technical and safety needs, particularly in light of mail screening requirements developed after the anthrax attacks in 2001. The government will continue to conduct ongoing market research to identify potential alternative sources for future competitions and reduce reliance on a single-source acquisition.
