Why no open competition
Single Suppliers Technical Reasons
Published justification

Its system is proprietary, and alternative suppliers cannot provide products capable of integrating with, communicating through, or being managed within the SmartScan architecture. As such, no reasonable alternative supplier exists, fulfilling the Procurement Act's "single supplier" justification for direct award where exclusive technical capability applies.
