Sole Source Justification
The justification for sole source procurement with Comcast Cable Communications, LLC, is based on the existing infrastructure at Building 306, Suites 175 and 350, Fort Meade, MD. Comcast is the sole provider with the necessary on-site infrastructure. Procuring services from another provider would necessitate a costly overhaul, significant disruption, and potential mission failure, citing an "urgent necessity to prevent operational stoppage."
