This Special Notice, posted by the Defense Logistics Agency Energy on November 21, 2025, announces DLA Energy's intent to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to Joint Inspection Group (JIG) for membership services. The contract is justified under FAR 6.302-1, which authorizes sole source procurement under specific circumstances. The notice represents DLA Energy's determination that JIG possesses unique capabilities necessary to fulfill the Government's requirements. The procurement is categorized under NAICS 513120 (Periodical Publishers) and PSC 7630 (Newspapers and Periodicals), reflecting the nature of the standards development and publishing work involved. This is not a request for proposals but rather a notification of the Government's intent to proceed with a sole source award.

The contract period runs for twelve months from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026. Interested parties may submit written challenges to this sole source determination to dlaea.bps@dla.mil by the December 1, 2025 deadline; challenges must include sufficient information demonstrating that equivalent services exist to meet the Government's stated needs. The Government retains sole discretion in determining whether to compete the requirement based on responses received.
