215.371-2 is sought, the contracting officer should provide the
following documentation to support the waiver request:
        (1) Summary of market research that documents that competition
was anticipated, process used to maximize competition
pre-solicitation, and description of solicitation method;
        (2) Rationale why re-advertising for an additional 30 days will
likely not obtain two or more offers.
