Identification of the justification rationale and, if applicable, a demonstration of the proposed contractor�s unique qualifications to provide the required supply or service. 2 10 U.S.C. 2304(c) (1) - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, FAR 6.302-1. The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) A Division, Code A33, MVCS Project has a requirement to have rugged vehicle configuration agent (VCA) computer from Core Systems. The Core Systems company makes this product.This ruggedized computer is a custom designed model that interfaces with our existing cabling and has had custom boards integrated into the computer to support our digital I/O needs. This product and no other product will meet the need to be integrated into our production system. 5. A determination by the ordering activity contracting officer that the order represents the best value consistent with FAR 13.106-1(b). The Contracting Officer has determined that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government�s needs. 6. A description of the market research conducted among schedule holders and the results or a statement of the reason market research was not conducted. No additional market research was conducted because it is not practical, for the reasons discussed in paragraph four above, for any company other than Core Systems to provide the product. CoreSystems has already designed and developed this custom product. 7. Any other facts supporting the justification. Prototype units of the CoreSystems product have already been delivered to NSWC PCD. Integration and development has already been done with these prototype units. A significant amount of rework would be required if any other product is substituted for the one already tested and developed. 8. A statement of the actions, if any, the agency may take to remove or overcome any barriers that led to the restricted consideration before any subsequent acquisition for the supplies 3 or services is made. As stated in paragraph four above, the Core Systems vendor is the only product that will met the MVCS requirements.

Examples of recommended technologies or processes include closed networks virtual private networks public key-enabled encryption and transport layer security (TLS) �������� g.� Encrypt organizational wireless connections and use encrypted wireless connections where available when traveling. If encrypted wireless is not available encrypt document files (e.g. spreadsheet and word processing files) using at least application-provided password protected level encryption. �������� h.� Transmit voice and fax transmissions only when there is a reasonable assurance that access is limited to authorized recipients. �������� i. Do not post unclassified DoD information to website pages that are publicly available or have access limited only by domain or Internet protocol restriction.
