This document is a justification for sole source procurement, not a solicitation. Therefore, proposal submission and evaluation criteria are not applicable here.

This is a sole source justification, citing 41 U.S.C 3304(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, indicating that only one responsible source (SupraVISTA) can satisfy the agency's requirements.

• Market research confirmed that Brillians is the only software capable of meeting the requirements due to its unique integration capabilities with VistA/CPRS and its proprietary source code.
• No other providers or resellers were identified that can meet the technical requirements or provide the necessary support.
