This document is a Sole Source Justification (SSJ) for a commercial parking contract issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The contract is with NP115 LLC to provide approximately 250 parking spaces near the USPTO headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia, for a base period of October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2030, with four additional one-year option periods. The parking spaces are located within 750 feet of the main campus and will include 166 uncovered and 84 covered spaces, with access credentials required for 250 USPTO employees.

The justification for sole source procurement stems from NP115 LLC being the only parking garage within walking distance of the main campus before October 6, 2025, when employees are directed to return to the office. This need arises from the USPTO's strategic reduction of its leased campus space and recent executive orders requiring local federal employees to return to work in agency offices. The contract is being awarded under the authority of 35 U.S.C. 2(b)(4)(A), with market research confirming no other commercial or government parking facilities meeting the agency's requirements.
