About this file

This document is a sole source justification memorandum for the acquisition of security systems from Advantor Security Systems to support the Department of the Army Florida Army National Guard. The installation currently uses Advantor equipment and systems for its security alarm system across multiple buildings, incorporating a central reporting station located at the base security office communicating with transceivers in each building. The Advantor systems and equipment are proprietary in nature and no other manufacturer's equivalent products can interface with the existing Advantor system. Installing another manufacturer's security systems would require substantial duplication of costs not expected to be recovered through competition and would cause unacceptable delays. The justification therefore seeks to acquire additional Advantor security equipment, including access control, intrusion detection, and video surveillance, to monitor critical resources under solicitation number W50S6Y24B0001 for repair of a medical training facility.

_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: 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 to install, maintain, repair, and integrate their equipment and systems. Advantor systems and items are already in place at the installation, and in this instance no other manufacturer's systems or items will communicate 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.
_4_ UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THA_fxPS18NzthbsRqqrY5h47Q: FANG currently employs Advantor Security Systems equipment and systems for our security alarm system in buildings of secure and mission critical nature. The overall system incorporates a central reporting station that is located at base security with transceivers located in every building on base and communicates back to the central reporting station. Advantor equipment/systems are proprietary in nature and no other manufacturer's equivalent products can communicate and support the current Advantor system currently employed at this installation. To install another manufacturer's equipment/systems would require substantial duplication of cost to the Government not expected to be recovered through completion resulting in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. Also, this intrusion detection system is critical to the success of securing flight operation missions as it is used as a force multiplier as it is in operation

24-hrs-a-day, 7-days-a-week.

_3_ BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPL_UM33PhqLHArLIQSUjN*Zfw: The installation uses Advantor Systems to provide a comprehensive security system with sensors and controls that span the entirety of the base and ties into an Advantor hub at the Base Defense Operations Center (BDOC). For this project, Advantor will provide the access control, intrusion detection, and video surveillance equipment to monitor critical resources.
