Sole Source (Including Brand Name) Justification – Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items
This is a federal procurement justification document for a sole source acquisition of Honeywell Vindicator Intrusion Detection System (IDS) components and installation services at Shaw Air Force Base. The contracting activity is the 20th Contracting Squadron (20 CONS/PKA), and the requirement is for the replacement of the current Honeywell Vindicator IDS, Access Control System (ACS), and Badge Management systems in Building 1130 security office, SCIF, and STO areas. The acquisition is being conducted under simplified procedures for commercial items with a funding level greater than SAT and less than $700K, utilizing AFFARS 5313.501 authority. The purchase request/local ID number is F3UTA26176A001, and the program is the B1130 A2 Vindicator Upgrade, approved on 30 June 2026 by Contracting Officer Daniel P. Kane.
The justification demonstrates that while a sole source approach is being used for the Honeywell brand-name requirement, the contracting officer conducted market research confirming multiple authorized Honeywell Vindicator vendors remain active and capable, including small businesses J2 Associates, Inc., LDIA Holdings, LLC, and HQE Systems, Inc. The requirement will be publicized as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside on SAM.gov to maximize competition among certified Vindicator installers. The sole source justification is based on technical and operational compatibility—the Honeywell Vindicator Command and Control (VCC) platform is the existing facility security system in-use at Shaw AFB with no interoperable alternatives, and introducing a different brand would require cost-prohibitive replacement of the entire VCC system. Historical procurement data from previous similar Vindicator installations and upgrades at Shaw AFB supports fair and reasonable pricing expectations through competitive proposals from at least two responsible small businesses.
