1. Limited Competition Justification - Advantor VMS Server Upgrade - Redacted1_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification Review Document for a single source procurement by the National Guard Bureau for an Advantor VMS Server Upgrade. The procurement is being conducted under the authority of 41 USC 1901 as implemented in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for soliciting from a single source, with the estimated price redacted.

The requirement involves a contractor providing and installing an 8ITB VMS Video Node to upgrade the current VMS Server storage capability for the 181 Intelligence Wing, IN ANG. The justification for single source procurement is based on the fact that the 181 Intelligence Wing already employs an Advantor system, and transitioning away from existing system components would require a complete system overhaul that could jeopardize mission continuity and risk compatibility with existing equipment. Advantor is identified as the only company that can successfully complete this requirement without breaching terms and conditions of existing Advantor products. The contracting officer is 1st Lt Jacob Johnson (jacob.johnson.46@us.af.mil, 812-877-5211), and the document indicates this is a new contract with firm fixed price terms for O&M Army funding. The document was prepared on July 13, 2025, with approval certification dated August 06, 2025.
