Justification for Sole Source
The justification cites 10 United States Code 3406(c)(2) as implemented in RFO FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), stating that Computable Insights, LLC is the only contractor capable of providing the unique and highly specialized services required. Computable Insights, LLC is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and sole provider of the proprietary Salesforce and MuleSoft software essential for the project's integration, workflow automation, AI, and user interface development. Market research was conducted, and alternatives were analyzed but found unsuitable to meet the specific requirements.
