About this file
This is an Intent to Award Sole Source document issued by the South Carolina Department of Corrections for Johnson Controls Fire Protection parts and technical support services. The solicitation (Number 5400025399) was issued on May 22, 2022, by Procurement Officer Myrtle K. deWerdt. The department intends to sole source fire protection maintenance and support services for Simplex Grinnell fire alarm systems and public address systems. The contract is structured as a one-year initial term from June 5, 2023, to June 4, 2024, with four automatically renewable one-year options, providing a potential five-year contract period through June 4, 2028. Responses must be submitted by June 5, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. to either the mailing or physical address at 4530 Broad River Road, Columbia, South Carolina 29210, or by email to bidsubmissions@doc.sc.gov. No bidders' conference or site visit is indicated in the documentation.
The sole source justification is based on the proprietary nature of Simplex Grinnell equipment, with Johnson Controls Fire Protection identified as the only authorized distributor for Simplex equipment and software. The department notes that maintaining UL integrity of the fire alarm system requires exclusive use of Simplex equipment. Prospective vendors must provide documentation of authorization to perform all required services and register as a South Carolina vendor. Any protests regarding the intended award must be submitted in writing to the Chief Procurement Officer within five business days of notice posting, with formal protests required within fifteen days. The notice is posted in the South Carolina Business Opportunities system for the required five to ten business days as mandated by SC Code 11-35-1560.
