Sole source
Sole Source Justification
We often receive requests for letters of sole source justification when attempting to purchase Tracker Products software. There are two different scenarios we deal with when talking about sole source justification:
- Sole Source #1 - Are there other vendors that offer Tracker software; possibly at a lower price.
- Sole Source #2 - Are there other systems on the market that offer a system like our system.
Sole Source #1
Tracker Products LLC, makers of Tracker software, is the only distributor of Tracker software in the world. There is no other vendor authorized to sell this system. We not only create the software but we sell, maintain and support every customer of the system.
Sole Source #2
What makes Tracker so unique that it could be considered sole source.
- We are the only vendor of a barcode tracking application that offers a hosted version to the system. That is, instead of buying and downloading the software on your local computer you access the site via a secure Internet connection. This secure Internet connection works much like any online banking site or payment system. All data is encrypted and passed via a 128bit secure connection. Every other application on the market requires a downloadable module that is installed on every that uses the system.
- We are the only vendor that offers a barcode tracking system that operates entirely in a web browser environment (IE, Firefox, Safari, etc).
- Tracker Products software is licensed per server and not per workstation. You can run the software on as many computers as you like.
- Our system customization is not available in any other products. Simply ask the competition if there are any limits to the number of fields that can be created in the system or options presented to a end user. Each customers has the ability to completely customize the entire interface of the application.
