This Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document from the 50th Contracting Squadron at Schriever Space Force Base outlines a procurement for Delta 6 TryHackMe Software Certs/Licenses. The acquisition involves a 12-month subscription for 100 software licenses and 40 Certs to access the TryHackMe Software Training Platform, with each software license estimated at a specific cost (amount redacted).

The document justifies the single-source procurement by highlighting TryHackMe's unique capabilities, including a browser-based, no-install solution with integrated certification (SAL1), flexible license management, and mission-specific scenario customization. Market research confirmed TryHackMe as the only provider meeting the Cyber-Formal Training Unit's requirements, such as browser access without local hypervisors, continuous delivery of new threat-based labs, and alignment with DoD 8140 work roles. The Contracting Officer determined on 11 August 2025 that only a single source is reasonably available, with the expectation that future market developments may increase competition.
