Angeles Road, Kings Bay, GA 31547-2634

2. Nature and/or Description of the Action Being Approved

The acquisition of the supplies/services particular to one manufacturer or company because only one source is reasonable available under a Sole Source Justification.

3. Description of Supplies/Services Required to Meet the Agency’s Needs

Relocation of Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) and Security Monitoring System (SMS).

IGE $8,000.00

4. Statutory Authority Permitting Brand Name Justification

This action is being executed in accordance with FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i) as only one source is reasonably available.

5. Rationale Supporting Use of the Authority

Johnson Controls Building Automation Sysstems LLC (JCBAS) is the sole provider and maintainer of the Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) and Security Monitoring System (SMS), as such they are the only contractor/vendor authorized to maintain, connect, disconnect, relocate, or modify the systems. Both systems, EMS & SMS, are required to be relocated temporarily to support an ongoing security hardening project. This hardening project is to ensure the Weapons Operation

System meets the DOD/DON requirement for Open Secret Storage facilities. This effort can only be performed by JCBAS. If this effort is not completed it will result in a delay of the contract, resulting in delay costs and ultimately the Weapons Operation Center not meeting the established requirement for Open Secret Storage which has a direct negative impact on command security and command mission.

6. Description of Market Research Conducted
