About this file
This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for a service contract to provide storage, maintenance, and repair services for the Mobile Modular Meeting Space (MMMS). The contracting activity is a service contract, with the project/program name being "Mobile Modular Meeting Space Climate Controlled Storage and Warranty." The estimated contract cost is redacted in the document. The government-owned MMMS is a custom trade-show booth fabricated by a single original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and currently stored in a climate-controlled facility with specialized handling equipment, proprietary tooling, and dedicated fabrication capabilities for replacement components and repairs.
The single source justification is based on the OEM's exclusive possession of proprietary tooling, specialized handling equipment, custom-fabricated jigs, in-house repair capabilities, and climate-controlled storage resources essential to protect the government-owned system. The OEM also maintains the only valid warranty on the MMMS, which is contingent upon the system remaining under their direct control. Market research identified two additional companies capable of fabricating similar items, but neither possesses the proprietary fabrication methods, repair expertise, or system-specific knowledge required. The document notes that transferring the MMMS to another vendor would void the existing warranty and introduce significant risks to system integrity and long-term sustainability. Section E outlines future mitigation steps, including evaluating non-proprietary design options, acquiring technical data rights, or establishing standardized requirements to enable competition in future awards. The Contracting Officer, 1st Lt Brooke Socolofsky, made the determination on February 6, 2026, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that only a single source is reasonably available for this requirement.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards
Because the current MMMS design relies on proprietary fabrication methods, specialized tooling, and an OEM-controlled warranty, future requirements will need to reassess the system’s design and technical data needs to enable full and open competition. This may include evaluating options for developing a non-proprietary design, acquiring sufficient technical data rights, or establishing standardized fabrication and repair requirements that can be met by multiple vendors. These steps would allow future storage, maintenance, and repair contracts to be competed without reliance on a single OEM.
Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination
I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
