About this file

This is a completed Simplified Acquisitions Sole Source or Brand Name Justification form (IBWC Form 356) for security systems maintenance services at LRGV facilities. The form justifies a sole source award to Applied Security Technologies (AST) for $273,419.00 under requisition number 2025R3101005.

The scope requires maintaining security systems including PCAS, IDS, CCTV, SMS (CCURE 9000) and related equipment with 8-hour response time. The justification cites three reasons for sole sourcing to AST: they are the only responsible source that can satisfy requirements, there is unusual and compelling urgency, and brand name justification. The rationale states that AST is the only vendor who services this specific security equipment and can meet the 8-hour response time requirement due to proximity to LRGV facilities. Market research was conducted using GSA eLibrary, GSA Advantage, and internet research. The form is signed by Esteban Martinez (Regional Security Officer) on Nov 13, 2024 and Danilo Martinez (Purchasing Agent) on Jan 13, 2025.

TextField1: Work shall consist of responding as needed to maintain security systems located at the LRGV facilities within eight (8) hours. The contractor shall maintain the PCAS, IDS, CCTV, SMS (CCURE 9000), and all accompanying equipment and materials, and update/upgrade CCURE 9000, and any other security system software as needed.
TextField1: Applied Security Technologies (AST) is the only vendor who services the specific type of security equipment that we employee at this facility. All other vendors would have to travel to get to this location and would require a great deal of time. Non-local vendors would not meet the response time requirement and would create a security concern for personnel, assets, and facilities. AST can meet the 8 hour response time.

Only vendor in proximity to LRGV facilities who can meet the response time requirements.
