This is a Memorandum for Record from the Department of the Air Force, Headquarters 49th Wing (ACC) at Holloman Air Force Base, dated 9 July 2026, documenting a SBIR Phase III contract extension award to Paratus AI, INC. The contracting officer, Brett Moore, CIV, USAF, issued this memorandum to establish sole-source justification for the Phase III extension derived from prior SBIR Phase I contracts FA8649-24-P-0103 and W519TC-25-P-0076 previously awarded to the same contractor.

Per 15 U.S.C. § 638(r)(4)(B), the memorandum confirms that no additional justification is required for awarding the Phase III contract to the previously selected SBIR award recipient. The document serves as formal record of this determination. For additional information regarding this requirement, interested parties should contact A1C Raymond Arbouet-Banton at 575-572-0160 or raymond.arbouet-banton.ca@us.af.mil, or the contracting officer at 575-572-5294. The memorandum does not specify contract value, performance timeline, statement of work details, or other substantive contract terms, as it functions solely as a justification document for the sole-source award authority.
