This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a Sole Source Justification (SSJ) for a WHSC Uniform Contract from 2025-2030 with UNIFIRST CORP. The General Service Administration's Customer Contracting Branch plans to award a sole source contract for uniforms for White House Service Center (WHSC) day-to-day staff, including Painters, Carpenters, and Masons. The acquisition is critical due to security requirements and the need for identifiable, embroidered badges.

Key details include: the contract was solicited on eBuy with no response, market research showed limited vendor interest, and the current contract expires at the end of November. The Contracting Officer determined the anticipated price will be fair and reasonable, with an urgent and compelling requirement that prevents a standard 15-day solicitation period. The procurement aims to quickly award a contract before the current uniform contract expires, with plans to reach out to vendors, the small business office, and potentially use SAM.gov for additional outreach if needed.
