4. Specific characteristics of the CEIA USA metal detectors that limit the availability to a sole-source, is the need for a metal detector that captures a metal signature of every inmate assigned to the institution where they are installed. The CEIA 600 PLUS and the 601 PLUS WTMD provide this requirement. Only this suggested source can furnish the requirements, to the exclusion of other sources, because as verified with CEIA USA, they design, manufacture, repair and performance capability is unique and proprietary to CEIA USA.

☐ The material or service must be compatible in all aspects

(form, fit, and function) with existing systems presently installed.

☒ A patent, copyright, proprietary data, or licensing agreement limits competition. The proprietary data are described as follows:

The CEIA 600PLUS and the 601PLUS are unique and proprietary to CEIA USA. CEIA is the only provider available to supply, service and support these metal detectors, to include parts and components of the CEIA 600PLUS and 601PLUS metal detectors.

☒ These are "direct replacement" parts/components for existing equipment.

CEIA 600PLUS and 601PLUS metal detectors are currently utilized by the Bureau of Prisons.

☒ Other information to support a sole-source buy:

CEIA USA currently has a maintenance and support agreement with the Bureau of Prisons. This blanket purchase agreement is for and extended warranty, parts, and repairs, which would be an additional expense for one year of Professional Services if the CEIA USA parts and services were to be acquired separately.
