single_source_justification copy_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the 14494 SIMAF APC Replacement project. The contract is for the Air Force Material Command and Air Force Sustainment Center Software Experimentation Directorate, involving decommissioning and removing serviceable Schneider Electric APC InRow cooling units in a building. The scope includes complete shutdown and disconnection of unserviceable units, capping unused chilled water lines, draining, and relocating two serviceable units between rooms.

The justification for single-source procurement is based on engaging CM Buck & Associates, Inc. as the sole Certified Service Sales Program provider for the southern Ohio region. Schneider Electric is the exclusive manufacturer-certified provider, and using an alternative vendor would invalidate the comprehensive warranty and potentially expose the organization to equipment malfunctions or failures. The total estimated contract cost is redacted, with delivery not to exceed 60 days ARO. The contracting activity is AFMC/AFSC OL_H/PZIEB, and the document indicates that future sole source justifications may be required, with ongoing market monitoring for potential alternatives.
