1. Contracting Activity: W50S9H – Volk Field ANGB

2. Description of Action: This approval is for brand name specified core/door lock equipment in a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Commercial Construction Service contract funded with Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (SRM) funds..

3. Description of Supplies/Services: Best Access Systems manufactured core/door locks to repair Airfield Lighting System project

4. Authority Cited: 10 United States Code 3204(a)(1) (as implemented by 10 U.S.C. 3204(b)(B) and RFO FAR FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(A)), Substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition.

5. Reason for Authority Cited: Volk Field CRTC The CRTC currently employs Best Access Systems for our base-wide door lock and keying system. The overall system incorporates a special hierarchy that defines the entire base set of buildings that require different locking cores for many different doors from building to building. 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. The estimated cost for converting the entire installation to a new door lock and key control system is substantial.

6. Efforts to Obtain Competition: The government is aware of several BEST Access Systems on GSA Advantage and Open Market. This document will be made public after award through the Government Point of Entry in accordance with FAR 6.305.

7. Actions to Increase Competition: If future core/lock requirements arise, the Government will continue to seek out vendors proposing cost-effective solutions that meet the Government's needs.

For this requirement however, Best Access Systems is the only manufacturer that can meet the Governments requirement.

8. Market Research: Market Research was conducted to determine commercial availability of the required items. Market research was conducted by querying GSA Advantage, recent local purchases as well as SAM.gov for previous contracts and historical purchases. Additionally, market research was conducted via commercial websites to gain additional information on commercial availably. Market Research indicated that the WI ANG and the US Air Force have awarded several contracts utilizing subcontractors of BEST Access Systems.
