dabears4, uh, nice find.
decent chance this might find its way to highlight box above.
Sole source justification is based on argument that a competitive alternative does not exist, waives the normal duration of a competition window, and typically allows the P.O. to roll after a very short posting period (generally 2 weeks as I understand it).
Sole source justification requires documentation by the requester of efforts to find competitive alternatives and rationalization of nearest products insufficiencies as it pertains to the need/mission.
Again, great find. Depending on scale this could go 8-k after the public posting interval (2 weeks?). Just musing on that (based on my understanding of timelines from a Sole Source notification and a P.O.)
The above content is my opinion.
