Authority Cited: United States Code 3304(a)(1) as implemented in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302- 1(c) Application for name brand descriptions. Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(c)(ii)(A)

Reason for Authority Cited:

Stanley Best Access Systems-Locks: Master-keyed interchangeable lock cores manufactured by Stanley Best Access Systems are the standard for securing buildings at the 117 ARW. Lock handles and other devices are not required to be Stanley Best Access Systems but all other devices must be fully compatible with MX-8 Best Access cores. Without Stanley Best Access System-Locks, the integrity of the security for our base would be compromised.

Efforts to Obtain Competition: A pre-solicitation notice is placed in beta.sam.gov in order to give contractors an early notification of this project. However, due to the proprietary nature of Stanley Best Access Systems-Locks, no effort to compete with these brand name requirements will be made.

Market Research: A sources sought notice was placed in beta.sam.gov and 1 contractor expressed interest in this project. All contractors will include the Stanley Best Access Systems-Locks in their bid.

Facts: The Stanley Best Access Systems-Locks MX-8 cores are the only lock cores compatible with every occupied facility at the 117th.
