About this file
This is a NASA Sole Source Justification and Determination document recommending single-source procurement from GetFocus for a FY26 software renewal. The NASA Shared Services Center seeks to negotiate exclusively with GetFocus for the GetFocus Software Renewal contract, with an estimated period of performance from 3/10/2026 to 3/10/2027. The total estimated cost is redacted in the document.
The justification establishes that GetFocus Software possesses unique characteristics essential for Langley Research Center's mission requirements, specifically its integrated functionality enabling rapid analysis and visualization of technology performance trends across diverse technical areas. The document asserts that alternative products lack equivalent analytical capability and cross-domain technology mapping efficiency. The impact analysis identifies significant operational and financial consequences of selecting alternative vendors, including loss of integrated platform functionality, requirement for multiple disparate tools with manual data integration, increased analysis time and labor costs, data inconsistency risks, and workflow incompatibility issues requiring process redevelopment and additional training. The technical user submitted the recommendation on 3/9/2026, one day prior to the contract performance period commencement date.

NASA SHARED SERVICES CENTER
RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE
OR BRAND NAME
PICK ONE
Sole Source:
☒I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with GetFocus only for FY26 GetFocus SW Renewal. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 3/10/2026 – 3/10/2027.
OR
Brand Name Justification:
☐I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate only with vendors who can provide the subject band name from Manufacture Namefor Enter Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Enter Dollar amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is Date.
This recommendation is for the acquisition of supplies or services determined to be reasonably available from only one source/only one manufacture. Competition is impractical for the following reasons (please answer the questions below):
1. What are the reasons for soliciting only the suggested source/suggested brand name? Please provide the unique characteristics of the items or services along with the supporting rationale and the market research performed to substantiate your reason for the suggested source/brand name.
The GetFocus Software uniquely enables users to rapidly analyze and visualize technology performance trends across diverse technical areas, which is essential for the mission requirements of Langley Research Center. Alternative products do not provide the same integrated functionality, level of analytical capability, or efficiency in mapping cross-domain technology improvement rates. As a result, the specified brand is required to meet the operational needs of the end user and for the continuation of our work.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
If the GetFocus solution is not selected, the end user will lose the ability to efficiently map technology improvement rates across multiple technology domains within a single platform. Alternative products would require the use of multiple tools and manual data integration, increasing analysis time, labor costs, and the risk of data inconsistencies. Additionally, compatibility issues with existing workflows could require process redevelopment and additional training, resulting in increased costs and reduced operational efficiency.
