2. NATURE/DESCRIPTION OF ACTION(S):

(1) Minimum Government requirements.

Provide a single control system for nine Core Data Centers that can monitor the security systems 24/7 and recognize the DOD Common Access Card. This Brand Name requirement for Lenel OnGuard is driven by the DISA HQ to control costs and ensure enterprise-wide compatibility.

A security clearance that allows the contractor to program on a DOD secure network.

(2) Proposed sole source contractor.

There is not a sole source contractor, however there is a brand name manufacturer, Lenel, for the Lenel OnGuard Security System that can be provided and installed by multiple licensed vendors.

(3) Impact.

Lenel OnGuard Security System is the brand name equipment and software provider for DISA Headquarters and required for the nine DISA data centers for consistency and reliability in use and maintenance. If the Lenel brand items are not purchased and installed, additional DISA funds will be needed to operate and maintain multiple types of security system equipment brands that are estimated at $3 million additional dollars.

The systems must be compatible to the Common Access Cards issued for DOD.

Multiple security system brands would necessitate different card readers at the different sites and different access control cards issued for each data center which requires additional card printers. Also, the new DISA Enterprise Integrated Security System (EWISS) maintenance services contract would need to be expanded to support multiple equipment brands which will substantially increase the cost of maintenance over the 10-year life of the security systems.

6. CONTRACT OPPORTUNITIES ANNOUNCEMENT/POTENTIAL SOURCES:

Even though the security system head-end software is brand-name specific, the contactors can purchase the security hardware/software from multiple source vendors who can meet the salient characteristics of the security system equipment.

7. DETERMINATION OF FAIR AND REASONABLE COST:

Fair and reasonable determination will be made using the independent government cost estimate and comparing to all proposals received.

8. MARKET RESEARCH:

The market research was based on the require security system.
