About this file
This is a Justification to Restrict Competition (JRC) document for a below-Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) acquisition by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Indian Health Service, Albuquerque Area.
The acquisition is for Phase III of an IT installation project with Mohawk Networks LLC Company (2819 State Route 95, Bombay, NY 12914) as the sole source. The scope of work includes: installation of a complete video teleconference system in the conference room with display system, central control, video presentation, and WEBex through USB AV bridging; cabling installation, camera mounting (41 cameras), device connectivity, AXIS Camera Station workstation installation, integration with existing rack infrastructure, system configuration, and physical installation services for all internal and external surveillance cameras; and installation and verification of operational capabilities for 22 AXIS sensors in all restrooms for smoking and vape detection. The justification for restricting competition to a single source is based on continuity requirements, as Mohawk Networks completed Phases I and II of the IT installation project. The contracting officer determined that using the same contractor ensures seamless integration and efficient installation of all components. Market research was conducted during Phase I with the expectation that subsequent phases would be awarded to the same company for continuity and expediency. The document was prepared by Laura Thomas on 4/9/2026 and approved by Contracting Officer Shannon Eldridge-shorty on 9/1/2026.
