The products identified meet the HRD’s specific mission requirements and are direct replacement products of the credential paper and supplies already in use. Precision Dynamics Corporation (IDenticard) has been identified as the only source capable of supplying the requested credential papers and supplies as only they produce the products that guarantee full compatibility with the current credential templates and satisfy all of the FBI’s HRD requirements. The existing software, designed by (IDenticard), allows template modifications to handle immediate changes to the format, function, and the urgent needs of the FBI. Additionally, the credential templates currently utilized by the FBI are proprietary products of (IDenticard).

In conclusion, based on market research, Government end-users, and speaking with the manufacturer, it has been determined the FBI's requirement can only be Precision Dynamics Corporation as no other vendor can provide the requested products. Justification available upon request.
