About this file

This document is a sole source justification memorandum for the acquisition of Johnson Controls-Metasys control system equipment and services from Johnson Controls. The Florida Army National Guard requires the equipment and services to tie its HVAC system into the base standard Johnson Controls-Metasys monitoring system at the base's CE department. The justification cites that the Metasys control system is the current base standard, its point reporting and integral transceiver use a proprietary programming logic and protocol language that are required to avoid complexity and incompatibility issues associated with managing different systems. Additionally, Automated Logic Corporation DDC equipment is already in place at the installation and no other manufacturer's systems or items will interoperate with the current system. The estimated amount for the sole source acquisition is to be determined.

_7_ PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACT_dWWFyKo3zgQ-e71MSrA2mA: The Government will continue to seek out vendors proposing cost-effective solutions that meet the Government's needs. Additionally, we will continue to conduct market research to find equipment/systems that are not proprietary in nature for the future.
_5_ PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACT_xMsHeIbKfGYdZx*NQZBzkg: A&E Design contract verification of proprietary and incompatibility with other systems. As stated above, to install another manufacturer's equipment/systems would require substantial duplication of cost to the Government not expected to be recovered through competition resulting in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. It is customary industry practice for manufacturers to limit proprietary information to technicians who have been properly trained and certified on how toi nstall, maintain, repair, and integrate their equipment and systems.
_4_ UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THA_fxPS18NzthbsRqqrY5h47Q: Metasys control system is current base standard, point reporting with integral transceiver proprietary programming logic is a specific protocol language to match existing base standard and to avoid the complexity and incompatibilities associated with managing differing systems and is not accessible to other manufacturers of DDC HVAC monitoring. ALC-DDCare already in place at the installation, and in this instance no other manufacturer's systems or items will inter-operate and work with the current system. The cost to convert a new system is not reasonable compared to the cost to maintain parts of the current system.
_3_ BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPL_UM33PhqLHArLIQSUjN*Zfw: Florida Air National Guard currently employs Automated Logic Corporation (ALC) DDC System to the HVAC to Tie into the Base standard Johnson Controls-Metasys monitoring at Base CE department.
