This document is a Justification Review Document for a "Marketing Supplies Order" that details the rationale for soliciting from a single source, citing authority under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

This justification indicates that the procurement is for marketing supplies, specifically toner for printers and laminators. The primary reason for a single-source solicitation is that the toner must be a specific "name brand" to avoid voiding the warranty on expensive printers. The document also notes that a previous solicitation in 2024 for this requirement received 7 offers, and the current justification for brand name or warranty protection remains unchanged. A Request for Quotation (RFQ) is planned to be posted on UNISON and Sam.Gov for multiple vendors to bid, despite the brand name restriction.
