I. Contracting Activity.

AFSC/PZIOB

II. Nature and/or description of the action being processed.

Brand Name Only Installation of Vindicator ACS/IDS in Tinker Mission Planning Room.

III. Description of supplies/services required to meet agency needs.

The Contractor shall Install the Honeywell Vindicator Intrusion Detection System (IDS) in the USSTRATCOM B989 secure room. The Contractor shall provide all necessary supervision, labor, travel, materials, tools, equipment, accessories and any other items necessary to safely complete installation and ensure operation of the IDS.

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standards for National Industrial Security Systems for the Protection of Classified Material, UL 2050, is mandatory for Tinker, AFB. This can currently only be met by using the Vindicator ACS/IDS at Tinker, AFB

The prospective contractor shall provide network devices for an existing Honeywell Vindicator Alarm system at a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIF) at building 989 on Tinker AFB.

The Contractor shall install Honeywell Vindication Model ACS and IDS with Fiber Media converter along with a tunnel for communication with 72 SFS Security Monitoring System.

The Contractor shall install with an Extent 3 Installation as referenced in UL 2050, Standard for National Industrial Security Systems for the Protection of Classified Materials.

The Contractor shall identify the process and timeline for installation and address any issues that they may have with installation.

Tasks:

Install AE SAW Workstation and VSC Site Commander

Install Tamper Switches, BMS and Passive IR Mount ACS and IDS panels in the communication room or the secure room Install AES Encryption Wire, Cisco Switch and Transceiver Modules Provide server rack, system monitor, keyboard and mouse Provide Batteries, Battery Pack for SMART UPS

The USAF intends to award this requirement as a Brand Name Only purchase order under the provision of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.3002-1. The IDS must comply with the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) Standard for National Industrial Security Systems for Protection of Classified Material, UL 2050. Contractors that install IDS hardware must be UL 2050 trained/Honeywell Vindicator Certified, which is the standard for the DOD. Any lock company that works with the DOD must have the UL 2050 certification. The UL 2050 trained/Honeywell Vindicator Certified contractor ensures the equipment installed & the SCIF will be protected to the DOD standards. The devices will enable the USAF to leverage existing network infrastructure and connect more sensors to the existing Vindicator system. These network devices are proprietary to Honeywell Vindicator Technologies.

Since these devices are to be added to an existing system that was previously purchased from Honeywell Vindicator, awarding to another vendor would require a complete replacement of the alarm system which would result in a duplication of costs to the government. Therefore, the brand name award to a Honeywell Vindicator Technologies, Inc. authorized installer, is in the best interest of the government.

IV. Statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition.

6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements (Brand Name)

V. Demonstration that the contractor's unique qualifications or nature of the acquisition requires the use of the authority cited above (applicability of authority).

VI. Description of efforts made to ensure that offers are solicited from as many potential sources as practicable.

A sources sought / request for information was posted to the GPE (www.beta.sam.gov) to try and determine if an alternate system was available to meet the needs of the USAF. Only 2 responses were received (both were small businesses) and neither response offered an alternative system to the Vindicator. Both responses stated they are certified to install the Vindicator System.

Based on this, this will be solicited as a total small business set aside with a brand name only requirement.

VII. Determination by the Contracting Officer that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

Per FAR 15.402 (a) Contracting officers shall purchase supplies and services from reasonable sources at fair and reasonable prices. It is expected that at multiple offers will be received for this acquisition and therefore the anticipated price will be fair and reasonable based on competition.

VIII. Description of the market research conducted and the results, or a statement of the reasons market research was not conducted.

Market research has been conducted via web and determined this product is available via open market. The availability of this product to private industry verifies it to be commercial.

IX. Any other facts supporting the use of Other Than Full and Open Competition.

The Tinker sustainment contract currently only supports the Vindicator ACS/IDS.

X. List of any sources that expressed, in writing, an interest in the acquisition.

XI. A statement of the actions, if any, the agency may take to remove or overcome any barriers to competition before making subsequent acquisitions for the supplies or services required.

The USAF will post the solicitation as a total small business set aside based on market research generating competition.

Additionally, market research will be done on all future acquisitions to determine if there is an alternative system available to meet the governments needs that also meets the necessary Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standards for National Industrial Security Systems for the Protection of Classified Material, UL 2050
