Attach. 2 - Brand Name J&A_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the FY25 SFS IonScan 600E Explosives Detection System, prepared by the 92d Contracting Squadron. The procurement is for a brand name IonScan 600 desktop Explosives Detection System to augment the 92d Security Forces Squadron's capabilities, with the ability to detect explosives and serve as a backup device. The acquisition is justified by standardization requirements from the Air Force Security Forces Center, with the Navy Surface Warfare Center Explosive Disposal Technology Division recommending this specific system.

The document indicates the government contacted three authorized small business resellers (Point Security, Noble Supply Logistics, and FarrWest) and anticipates receiving at least two quotes, with the procurement structured as a 100% small business set-aside. The intent is to purchase another IonScan 600, leveraging existing training and familiarity from a previous 2020 contract. The Contracting Officer has determined that only a single source is reasonably available, with the procurement dated for 22-May-2025 and approved in accordance with federal acquisition regulations. The EDE Program will continuously evaluate alternative machines for future acquisitions.
