Single Source Determination - DB Sign for HRSTS_Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification document for a DBSign License Renewal requirement from the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center/GBKH (AFLCMC/GBKH), with Purchase Request number F3PT434362A001. The document justifies sole-source procurement from Gradkell Systems, Inc., which is identified as the only authorized reseller of DBSign Data Security Suite software and maintenance services.

The requirement involves renewal of annual maintenance for DBSign 4.x software, which enables paperless business processes and improves efficiency in financial/accounting systems, document management systems, and online approval chains. Gradkell Systems, Inc., a SAM-registered small business with Cage Code 0T3Z4, is established as the sole authorized provider. Market research conducted through DOD ESI, GSA, and NASA SEWP found no other vendors. The justification was signed by Contracting Officer Erica M. Morris (GS-12) on January 28, 2025, citing FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) as the authority for this simplified acquisition. While no current efforts exist to preclude future single-source awards, the GBH program team continues to conduct market intelligence to identify potential alternatives for reducing lifecycle costs.
