THROUGH YOUR MARKET RESEARCH TO SUPPORT THE JUSTIFICATION TYPE:

Statements like "Only known source" or "Only source which can meet the required delivery date" are inadequate, and marketing language like “This company has made its mark,” “This company is recognized as industry’s best,” and “This company is the leader in…” is unacceptable.

In order to meet condensed timeline and be ready for future operations to support Trident Forge 2027, sole source justification should be leveraged to deploy this capability in a very timely and urgent manner. Trusted Systems is the approved vendor for this critical capability that meets all requirements by Department of War and USCG SPM.
