SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION

ArcGIS maintenance is necessary to keep the EPL’s software up-to-date with current versions and to ensure software support and any required patches are provided. Without the necessary software patches and software updates, the EPL is at risk of not meeting NAVSEA and

NETWARCOM’s Information Assurance policy compliances. The EPL is also at risk of being unable to provide Navy customers, including OPNAV, USFF, NAVSEA, and Program

Executive Offices, with the spatial analysis, data products, and cartographic products required to meet regulatory obligations under the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), NEPA, and

Executive Order 12114. Non-compliance with the aforementioned compromises the Navy’s at-sea testing and training exercise missions.
