DESCRIPTION OF ACTION: This justification for other than full and open competition will result in award of a firm fixed price delivery order for brand name GoTo Webinar and Open Voice Audio software, and components in support of the EOIR Public Affairs. EOIR Public Affairs must utilize GoToWebinar and Open Voice Audio to support on line web meetings with audio recording collaboration within EOIR components as well as external agencies to include the White House.

This procurement will be used to sustain the ability to provide on line web meetings with audio recording collaboration for EOIR Public Affairs internally and with its affiliates.
4. AUTHORITY CITED: 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR6.302-1, “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfay this requirement.”
5. REASONS FOR AUTHORITY CITED: For this action, The Office of Information Technology, USDOJ Headquarters request a sole justification for LogMein who is the only provider for GoToWebinar and Open Voice Audio. LogMein is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for GoToWebinar and GoToMeeting and that the Sr. Account Executive, in a letter dated August 5, has told us that no reseller is allowed to sell open audio portion of our requirement. Not only is GoToWebinar and Open Voice Audio integrated into our infrastructure, but without the renewal of the specified software the mission critical offices mentioned in paragraph 2 would not be able to continue to attend online meetings or connect to audio conferences related to mission objectives or the organization. As a result of not renewing this service, EOIR’s mission of fairly, accurately and expeditiously adjudication immigration cases would not be upheld.
