This document is a Sole Source (Including Brand Name) Justification for a critical CCTV system upgrade at Eielson Air Force Base (AFB), prepared by the 354th Contracting Squadron in March 2023. The acquisition involves a brand-name acquisition of Prometheus VICADS V100 Core Equipment, specifically 1x Prometheus VICADS V100, 90x Avigilon Cameras, Cisco networking equipment, and associated hardware and software. The procurement requires on-site installation, programming, and testing to seamlessly integrate with existing infrastructure.

The justification highlights unique qualifications for sole-source selection, including the Prometheus VICADS v100 Cluster being the only recorder compatible with existing analog cameras and Cisco fiber network infrastructure. The market research included posting a Sources Sought on SAM.gov from 24 May 2025 to 2 June 2025, which generated eight vendor responses, including four small businesses. The Air Force intends to promote future competition by exploring open standards, modular design, and early vendor engagement for subsequent CCTV acquisitions. The urgency stems from the outdated CCTV system posing significant security risks to Eielson AFB, necessitating a prompt upgrade to protect personnel and critical assets.
