About this file

This document is a justification and approval for other than full and open competition for sole source items within a construction project. The project involves installing new heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems and direct digital controls throughout an engine shop facility. The sole source item is Johnson Controls for the HVAC system's controls, which is the only manufacturer that ensures standardization and interoperability with the wing's existing centralized monitoring equipment. Using other manufacturers would require additional monitoring systems that are unnecessary. The estimated value for the sole source items is $TBD. The authority cited is the United States Code for allowing sole source procurement when only one responsible source will satisfy the agency's requirements. The Alabama Army National Guard is the contracting agency, and the solicitation number for the related federal contract opportunity is W50S6N-23-B-0006 for engine shop services.

Justification and Approval for Other than Full and Open Competition Sole Source Items within a Construction Project AFARS 5153.303-5

Contracting Activity: USPFO Alabama

Description of Action: FAKZ - F35

Type of Action: New Contract Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price Funding Type: MI CON

Description of Sole Source Items: ohnson Controls: The project will consist of installation of new heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems throughout the facility. This will include new Direct Digital Controls.

Estimated Value of Sole Source Items: $

Authority Cited: United States Code 3304(a)(1) as implemented in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302- 1(a)(2)(ii)(B), Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

Reason for Authority Cited:

The 187th exclusively utilizes Johnson Controls for HVAC system's Direct Digital Controls. This is the only manufacturer that is utilized to allow for standardization and guaranteed interoperability. To build a structure that did not utilize this system would compromise the ability to control and monitor base utilities to reduce energy consumption to the maximum extent possible. Utilizing other manufacturers would necessitate the purchase of additional centralized monitoring systems for the Hangar Building 1201 and Civil Engineering B1801.

Efforts to Obtain Competition: A pre-solicitation notice is placed in am.gov in order to give contractors an early notification of this project.

Market Research: The Johnson Controls system is proprietary, no other solutions will be compatible with the centralized monitoring equipment/system that is currently in place at the 187th Fighter Wing.

Facts: The Johnson Controls system is the only product that is compatible with every occupied facility at the 187th.

Technical Certification I certify that the supporting data under my cognizance, which is included in the justification, is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
