CJA ML-25-03 Class FRCS Cherry Point - Redacted.pdf

This is a Class Justification and Approval (CJ&A) document issued by the Department of the Navy's Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Mid-Atlantic (NAVFAC MIDLANT) authorizing use of other than full and open competition for a federal contract opportunity.

The document authorizes the use of Johnson Controls International (JCI) Metasys brand-name commercial equipment for Facility Related Control Systems (FRCS) building heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system Direct Digital Controllers (DDC) at MCAS Cherry Point, NC. Authority to act under this class justification extends from May 15, 2025 to May 14, 2030. The total estimated value for JCI Metasys product line equipment through April 29, 2030 is redacted, with costs associated with programmable building controllers representing a small percentage of total installation effort. The justification covers all projects requiring connection to the existing Cherry Point Facility Related Control Systems (CPFRCS) networked facilities control and monitoring system, encompassing new construction, renovation, and maintenance of various controller types including Network Control Modules, Network Appliance Engines, Extended Digital Controllers, Variable Air Volume Modular Controllers, Unitary Controllers, and Field Equipment Controllers. Appendix A lists 18 projected projects spanning fiscal years 2022 through 2030 across MILCON and Special Projects funding categories. The statutory authority permitting this procurement approach is Title 10, U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), based on standardization and interoperability requirements, cybersecurity posture maintenance, system configuration compatibility, and cost avoidance. A Sources Sought announcement closed November 13, 2024, yielding three responses, with NAVFAC MIDLANT and FEAD Cherry Point determining that a single JCI controller fully integrating with existing systems best serves government interests. The Echelon IV Commanding Officer approved this justification for use of other than full and open competition.
