About this file
This is a Justification for Sole Source Acquisition document for a simplified acquisition under $350,000 prepared by the Naval Service Training Command.
The acquisition is for audio/visual equipment rental services to support Naval Reserve Officer Training Command (NROTC) N7 and N9 sponsored training seminars and conferences at the Crown Plaza O'Hare in Chicago, Illinois. The services will support NROTC departments conducting training events with up to 100 participants plus staff across approximately 9 rooms, requiring overhead speakers, microphones, LCD projector screens, overhead projectors, flip charts, and podiums. The estimated cost is $47,700.00 for the base period and $93,062.00 for the option period. Audio Visual One, located at c/o Crown Plaza Chicago O'Hare, 5440 N River Road, Rosemont, Illinois 60018, has been identified as the sole source provider. The manufacturer point of contact is Jim Skita at (708) 878-1854.
The justification for sole source procurement is based on Audio Visual One being the only authorized provider of audio/visual equipment at the Crown Plaza O'Hare venue and the only provider with an on-site business office capable of providing immediate response to technical issues. The document emphasizes that the training courses are time-sensitive and any audio/visual delays could affect instructor and student schedules or require costly course rescheduling. Audio Visual One has provided audio/visual services to other U.S. Government agencies at this location with an outstanding reputation for immediate response and exceptional customer service. The document was signed by the NROTC Naval Science Curriculum Manager on 20 August 2026 and approved by Contracting Officer Nevelstein Kelley Jenelle.
