Oxygen Forensic

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has issued a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source purchase order to Oxygen Forensics Inc. for 5 seats of annual renewal, software upgrades, and support for Oxygen Forensic Detective software. This forensic tool is used for conducting examinations of mobile devices within laboratory settings. The contract period runs from August 31, 2025 to August 30, 2026, with a total value that falls under simplified acquisition procedures governed by FAR Part 13. The DEA has determined that Oxygen Forensics Inc. is the only source reasonably available to satisfy the government's specific requirements for this brand-name acquisition. This Special Notice is classified under NAICS code 513210 for Software Publishers and PSC code 7A20 for IT and Telecom Application Development Software.

The primary purpose of this notice is to inform the marketplace of the DEA's intent to proceed with a non-competitive procurement while providing an opportunity for other potential vendors to demonstrate their capabilities. Interested parties who believe they can meet the requirements must submit complete information describing their ability to provide the specified products and services to the designated contracting officer email address by July 11, 2025. The government emphasizes that this is not a request for competitive quotations, and any responses received will be used solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted instead. The DEA reserves full discretion in deciding whether to proceed with the sole source award based on any responses received, and there is no obligation to acknowledge receipt of submissions or provide feedback to respondents. The government also retains the right to use any information provided for purposes deemed necessary and legally appropriate.
