Single Source Justification.pdf

This single source justification document relates to solicitation number 15M30023PA3700081 for the FMS Navigational Database opportunity with the Department of Justice US Marshals Service. The solicitation seeks to acquire a proprietary navigational database from the incumbent vendor, who is the original developer and sole owner of the required proprietary data. The justification outlines that the database contains sensitive law enforcement data, algorithms and software that are not available from other commercial sources and would require substantial customization to replicate. Requiring this proprietary data from the incumbent is therefore deemed by the agency as the only option that can meet its needs in a timely and cost effective manner without compromising national security or law enforcement objectives.
