About this file
This document is a Determination that Only One Source is Reasonably Available for a FAR Part 13 Acquisition under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, prepared by the Marine Depot Maintenance Command (MDMC). The document justifies a sole-source procurement for continued support and maintenance of the IGuides hardware and software system, which is critical for IUID dataplate production capabilities. CodeSource was verified as the sole-source provider for these services via email on 25 November 2025, with justification based on restrictive rights and exclusive licensing agreements.
The procurement is an annual renewal of an existing support and maintenance contract, with the acquisition not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. The document includes certifications from Ronnie Johnson (Technical/Requirements) and Sgt Jazelle Gomes (Contracting Officer), who both digitally signed the document in December 2025. The document is marked as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) with a Limited Dissemination (DL ONLY) control, restricting distribution to specific MCFCS personnel, procurement team members, and other designated individuals.

MEMORANDUM TO THE FILE
Subj: DETERMINATION THAT ONLY ONE SOURCE IS REASONABLY
AVAILABLE FOR A FAR PART 13 ACQUISITION UNDER THE SIMPLIFIED
ACQUISITION THRESHOLD
I. BACKGROUND:
1. FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) states for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization).
2. As required by FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement (or portion of the requirement to be sole-sourced) is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.
II. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM OR SERVICE:
Marine Depot Maintenance Command (MDMC) is requesting the continued procurement of the IGuides hardware and software support and maintenance contract to sustain mission-critical IUID dataplate production capabilities. This requirement represents the annual renewal of an existing support and maintenance contract for the IGuides system.
