Justification and Approval - DoSINL-Locks sig_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for a sole-source procurement of door keying systems and lock cores manufactured by Best Coremax for the Department of State International Narcotics Law Enforcement Affairs Hangar Renovation Project at Patrick Space Force Base, Florida. The project involves renovating buildings 985, 986, and 988, which will include replacing HVAC systems, electrical systems, communication systems, fire protection systems, plumbing, roof structure, and performing complete interior renovation. The PSFB Installation Facility Standards require using Best Coremax locking systems to match existing Air Force keying systems and implement security protocols.

The total estimated contract value is redacted, with the keying system and lock cores being a specific line item. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District will execute the design-build contract, which will be a firm-fixed-price construction contract. The sole-source justification is based on the PSFB Installation Facility Standards mandating these specific lock systems, with no feasible alternatives identified. A market research notice was posted on SAM.gov, and no firms responded to the notice of intent to sole-source these brand-specific components. The contract aims to ensure compatibility with existing security infrastructure and prevent unauthorized access to sensitive facilities.
