This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the 502d CONS/JBKAA contracting activity. The procurement involves acquiring and installing two Raypak boilers and one AERCO boiler for the removal and replacement of existing units within Building 1377 at Joint Base San Antonio - Fort Sam Houston, TX. The project aims to replace aged boilers that have reached the end of their operational lifespan and ensure continued reliable heating for critical facilities.

The justification for a single source is based on the unique demands of Building 1377's heating system and 502d Civil Engineering Squadron standards. Raypak and AERCO boilers were selected after a comprehensive evaluation, with the rationale that substituting other brands would require extensive re-engineering of existing infrastructure, including piping, electrical systems, and control networks. The government plans to post a Request for Quote (RFQ) on SAM.gov to invite qualified vendors, with market research indicating the presence of multiple small businesses capable of fulfilling the requirement. The contract is anticipated to be awarded on 19-Aug-2025, with the contracting officer determining that only a single source is reasonably available.
