Justification At or Below SAT Pittsburgh Tolls_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Sole Source Acquisition document for simplified procedures under the Micro-Purchase Threshold (MPT) to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

NTAG Pittsburgh requires burden-free access to the Pennsylvania toll-road thoroughfare (PA Turnpike) through the PA Turnpike Commission's E-Z Pass program. The sole source contractor is PA TURNPIKE COMMISSION (CAGE Code 0G6D5). The base contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with five option periods extending through 30 April 2032. The service is justified as sole source because the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is a state government agency with exclusive authority to set prices and accept payments for PA Turnpike access. No city, state, federal agency, or private industry contractor can provide access to interchanges, entry lanes, or exit lanes on the PA Turnpike system. The E-Z Pass program offers advanced and cashless travel capabilities with faster travel times compared to non-toll alternatives, reduced delays at toll booths, safer driving experiences, and lower vehicle operation costs across the fleet. The justification emphasizes that the strategic placement of toll roads reduces travel time and provides direct routes unavailable through alternative means, making this service essential for NTAG Pittsburgh personnel traveling to local recruitment and mission destinations. The Technical/Requirements Certification was signed on 6 June 2026 by Robert D Taylor II, and the Contracting Officer determination was signed on 18 June 2026 by LOZZI ADELINA at NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center, Norfolk Contracting Department, Pentagon Directorate.
