About this file

This document is a justification for sole source procurement. The USPFO Alabama is seeking to procure an Advantor intrusion detection system as part of the F35 Weapons Load Crew Training Facility project at a value of $158,000. The justification cites Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B), stating that Advantor is the only approved and compatible security system for Air Force and National Guard facilities at the 187th Fighter Wing. Market research found Advantor equipment and systems to be proprietary with no other vendor options. Approval was granted to procure the sole source Advantor Security Systems.
