About this file
This is a Sole Source Justification (SSJ) for a non-competitive federal contract award under the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Program.
PSC/FMP/Debt Collection Division is procuring a 12-month contract for Statistical Analysis System (SAS) software licenses required to operate the Debt Management and Collection System (DMCS) legacy application. The contractor is Executive Information Systems, LLC under GSA Schedule Contract Number 47QTCA18D0081 75P00120F80185. The Period of Performance runs from August 31, 2026 through August 30, 2027, with the award projected for August 2026 using fiscal year 2026 funds (TAS 75-X-5745, CAN E9926FA P05). The justification for sole source procurement is based on GSAM/R 538.7104-3(b)(1)(ii), citing that Executive Information Systems, LLC is the only source capable of providing uninterrupted support and continuous SAS software licenses without requiring a complete code rewrite. Market research confirmed the contractor's unique positioning and noted that their licensing costs are below standard price list rates. The contractor previously received an award from August 31, 2020 through August 30, 2021 with four option periods and remains the sole authorized reseller of perpetual licenses and maintenance to U.S. Government end users. The contracting officer determined the anticipated price represents best value, and the CO approval authority is limited to $900 thousand.
