Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition
This training is exclusively licensed and sold by TalentSmart, as such there is no other viable competition to provide this requirement. Internet searches were conducted in an attempt to locate additional vendors and/or equivalent training courses and none were identified. If competition is sought, additional certifiecations for each facilitator would be required leading to substantial duplication of costs to the government.
Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards
Future acquisitions will conduct market research to identify if any additional sources have entered the market which can offer equivalent emotional intelligence training.
Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination
I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
