Submission & Evaluation
This document serves as a justification for limiting competition, citing 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits acquisition from only one or a limited number of sources. It is not a request for proposals from other vendors. Efforts to improve competition included a sources sought notice on SAM.gov on November 12, 2025, which yielded no responses.
Eligibility / Set-Aside
This acquisition is restricted to ARROWHEAD PRODUCTS CORP (CAGE 70628) and SENIOR OPERATIONS LLC (CAGE 98769), as they are identified as the only known sources capable of furnishing the required supplies.
