(4) Identify the Authority and Supporting Rationale:

FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(B): Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized.

The entire security network is currently maintained by Johnson Controls under the current service contract 36C25223P0440 that provides maintenance, replacement and emergency work orders of the building security systems. All systems are integrated into P-2000 to act as one complete common platform. The P-2000 system is proprietary to Johnson Controls (JCI), the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). JCI is the only source for the required parts and maintenance services.

Due to the complexity level and licenses that were purchased to include ongoing maintenance and warranties, the security network’s integrity would be compromised if other products were incorporated or installed on all upgrades and emergency replacements.

(5) Describe Why You Believe the Order Represents the Best Value consistent with FAR 8.404(d) to aid the contracting officer in making this best value determination: Per FAR Part 8.404, Johnson Controls GSA schedule for products and labor for maintaining security systems are in accordance with their GSA contract, GS-07F-190CA and has already been determined to be fair and reasonable.

(6) Describe the Market Research Conducted among schedule holders and the results or a statement of the reason market research was not conducted.

(7) Any Other Facts Supporting the Justification: None

(8) A Statement of the Actions, if any, the agency may take to remove or overcome any barriers that led to the restricted consideration before any subsequent acquisition for the supplies or services is made: The government will continue to conduct market research at the time each option is exercised to ensure that it is still in the best interest of the government to do so.

I understand that processing of this limited sources justification restricts consideration of Federal Supply Schedule contractors to fewer than the number required by FAR Subpart 8.4.
