Signed Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition.pdf

This document is a justification for a sole source contract award. The United States Marine Corps is seeking Reid Technique training services through a limited competition solicitation numbered M67400-23-Q-0079. The services required include instruction on the Reid Technique of interviewing and interrogation for Marine Corps Criminal Investigation Division special agents. The justification cites that Reid Technique training is proprietary to a single company, which holds pertinent certifications and intellectual property related to the technique. No other company is able to provide equivalent instruction for this specialized topic. The contract would be awarded on a sole source basis to the only company capable of fulfilling this requirement.
