Brand Name JandA B583 controller replacement_CO signed_redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification document for the B583 Controller Upgrade project at 55 CONS/PKB. The project involves replacing and programming failed, degraded, and obsolete HVAC controllers at Building B583 which have reached their end of service life. The justification explains that Honeywell controls must be used since the existing base HVAC control system is Honeywell, and the building management system (EBI) is connected to every building on base for remote monitoring.

The document justifies the single-source requirement by explaining that while controllers could theoretically be vendor-neutral using BACNET protocols, they need to be from Honeywell's N4 product line to avoid new training requirements. The local contractors are Engineered Controls or Honeywell International. The EBI is noted as a proprietary building management system that only Honeywell can program. The justification is signed by Contracting Officer Austin D. Palrang on November 20, 2024, citing FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) as the authority for single-source determination. The document indicates this is not a Bridge Action under the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan.
