About this file
This document is a determination memorandum for a limited sources acquisition under the Federal Acquisition Regulation 8.405-6. The Texas Army National Guard intends to issue a sole source delivery order to Tower Solutions, LLC for equipment replacement and preventative maintenance services for ground control station towers. The estimated amount is $20,000 to be funded by operations and maintenance funds. Tower Solutions, LLC holds GSA contract GS-07F-5540R, from which the delivery order will be issued. The proprietary nature of Tower Solutions' software and equipment limits the ability of other contractors to perform the required upgrade and maintenance services. No actions were identified to increase future competition for similar requirements.
