About this file
This document is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Determination Memorandum for a sole source acquisition over the micro-purchase threshold, but not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
The 184 Wing, Kansas Air National Guard, intends to award a single source, firm fixed price contract to AT&T Corp. for the purchase of Local Telecommunication Service (LTS), including both local and long-distance service. The requirement is currently being provided by AT&T, and the intent is to contract an additional year of service before the Wing's telecommunications are rolled under the active-duty component through mandatory migration to 1-Base-1-Network, where AT&T is also the provider. The contracting officer has determined that AT&T is the only reasonably available source to meet the government's requirement and ensure a smooth transition. Sources interested in responding must submit capability statements by July 10, 2024, but the government has sole discretion in determining whether to proceed with a sole source or competitive procurement.

In order to ensure a smooth transition we are utilizing the same company that the 22nd currently utilizes, which is AT&T. |
