Justification for Sole Source
The VA OIG has determined that Callyo's specific features are critical and cannot be replicated by other services. Market research found no comparable alternatives, and the proprietary nature of Callyo brand software and peripherals is essential for the agency's investigative functions. Callyo does not partner with authorized resellers, precluding competition through that channel. The Sole Source Justification is attached to the notice for full details.
