QUOTE/SOLICITATION NUMBER: W50S9F-22-R-0001

ESTIMATED AMOUNT (Not exceeding $250,000):

BRAND NAME BUY YES NAME OF PROPOSED CONTRACTOR Marshall Best Security (MBS) Corporation

DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED AND THE INTENDED USE:

The base utilizes Marshall Best Security (MBS) Corporation's premium YB series keys and cores. The base began converting its buildings to the MBS premium YB because of it non-duplicability. Additionally, the base invested in a key cutting machine designed specifically for this series.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR

SERVICES CAN BE USED:

Marshall Best Security created the YB series keys and cores for the purpose of offering secure, non-duplicable key control to their customers. It has been produced in a 7-Pin core. This is a keyway (lock/key system) particular to Marshall Best Security and is nowhere on the open market. Along with the product, MBS provides tailor-designed master-key work at no additional charge. This includes code sheets for the base to use with our key cutting machine. MBS also provides detailed lock schedules for each of our buildings and a schematic of each building's key scheme.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND DETAILED

DESCRIPTION OF MARKET RESEARCH PERFORMED:

The base needed to re-key away from our older easily duplicable system due to significant security concerns. The old keys and cores could be found on the open market and that threatened key control. The Marshall Best Security YB series offered us the unique benefits of restricted key duplication, along with an ability to obtain a MBS factory authorized key cutting machine for use at the base.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR IS NOT AVAILABLE:

Since the base has converted multiple buildings on the base to our new Marshall Best Security YB series keys and cores it is inadvisable to retreat to another brand. The base would be squandering our investment as no other brand of keys and cores will interact with the current MBS keyway.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS TO

COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED:

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.
