<abstract>   Protest that contracting agency improperly failed to investigate whether
   competition existed to perform requirements prior to awarding a
   sole-source contract to perform such requirements is denied where the
   procurement was under simplified acquisition procedures and where the
   record showed that the contracting officer reasonably determined that,
   under the circumstances of the contract action, only one source was
   reasonably available.</abstract>
