Single Source Justification P00004 Redacted.pdf

This document outlines a sole source justification and related federal contract opportunity. The Air Force's Scott Air Force Base created an Elevate Office to identify innovative solutions that deliver efficient support with fewer resources. The office searched for autonomous technology to accomplish grass mowing on the base's 580-acre flight line and snow removal on approximately five million square yards currently performed by 12 to 14 government personnel. In September 2021, the Elevate Office awarded an unknown vendor a contract under solicitation number FA440721P0036 for additional testing of an autonomous mower technology. However, insufficient snowfall required adding more capabilities testing to the contract via modification on September 20, 2022. The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command is the contracting agency.
