Section A: General Contract Information

Is this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan? Yes No

Contracting Activity: 11 CONS

Project/Program Name: 11 SFS LMR MOTOROLA RADIOS

Purchase Request/Identification Number: F1D3648163AW03

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options):

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

Procurement and delivery of fifteen (15) Motorola APX 6000 Rugged UHF R1 Portable Radios w/specific encryption parameters and service warranty for preventive care maintenance with minimal downtime for completion.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

(A) By using Motorola Solutions in Lanham the 11 SFG Armory radios being under warranty could be serviced at the location and be returned to JBA via FedEx in a timely manner. By using this vendor the 11 SFG mission can continue with their communications needs of their deployed forces.

(B) If the 11 SFG uses the above vendor radios drop off and turnaround time would be way more efficient than sending the radios to another out of state vendor. Which means a radio being down for weeks as opposed to days.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Motorola Solutions is the current source for our previous service warranty that is local within the JBA proximity and is crucial to operational downtime towards SFS mission when repairs are needed as referenced in section C above. In addition, this procurement includes a service warranty that allows for the repair of existing Motorola radios within the SFS inventory.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

At this time there are no competitors offering this capability. Should alternate sources become available, we will reconsider at that time.
