This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for the procurement of Sleep Number mattresses for the 812 CES FM9 Fire Department at Edwards Air Force Base. The procurement request (F152AA4318AW01) is being handled by AFTC/PZIOB.

The requirement includes 55 Sleep Number c2 360 Smart Bed Twin XL mattresses, 4 Queen-size Smart Beds, 46 bunkie boards, 13 integrated bases (9 Twin XL, 4 Queen), 59 mattress covers, and 59 smart remote controls. The justification for single-source procurement is based on Sleep Number's patented technology that provides superior sleep quality, documented performance through scientific studies and military evaluations, reduced maintenance costs, and the fact that alternative brands have not met required performance standards. While the solicitation will be posted per FAR 5.2 to allow authorized vendors to compete, competition will be limited to authorized Sleep Number suppliers. The contracting officer determined on February 18, 2025 that only a single source is reasonably available for this procurement.
