About this file

This document is a Determination that Only One Source is Reasonably Available (Including Brand Name) for a FAR Part 13 Acquisition under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The procurement is for Close Quarter Training at MID-SOUTH INSTITUTE, which is the only venue within a reasonable driving distance to the 3d Force HQ, with proper ammunition storage facilities, on-site lodging, and meals. The document justifies using a single source based on the training venue's unique characteristics that no other training facilities offer.

The document indicates that the training is specifically for Close Quarter Tactics (CQT) facilities, which are larger and better suited to build scenarios and training to develop the 3d Force's CQT capability. The procurement is being processed under the "Other Reasons" category, highlighting the unique training environment and capabilities of the MID-SOUTH INSTITUTE. The document requires certifications from both technical/requirements personnel and the Contracting Officer, with a distribution list limited to specific MCFCS Personnel, LB Personnel, and Procurement Team Personnel.
