Memorandum for Record – Limiting Competition at or Below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold
This is a Memorandum for Record (MFR) justifying a sole source procurement under FAR 12.201-1 for commercial acquisitions valued at or below the simplified acquisition threshold. The 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne) at Fort Carson is issuing a fixed-price purchase order to BW Secure for physical security infrastructure upgrades to Building 7477. The performance period runs from April 20, 2026, to March 30, 2027, with an estimated contract value that is redacted in the document. The contracting activity is the 918th Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Carson, with FY 2026 funding from sources other than Operations & Maintenance, Army (OMA).
BW Secure will provide non-personal services to install an Exodus single pedestrian egress gate with programmable remote control, remove and dispose of existing walk-through gate and hardware, install reinforced gate posts and three strands of barbed wire above the gate to match the existing perimeter fence, and program two remote controls for the drive-through gate. The contractor will accomplish upgrades to the building's physical security by installing the new pedestrian egress gate and connecting it to the existing gate, removing construction waste, and programming the remotes for delivery to the Contracting Officer's Representative. The justification for sole source selection centers on BW Secure's 15+ years of continuous service maintaining the compound's CCTV and access control systems, their exclusive knowledge of the complex and sensitive infrastructure, physical location within 15 miles of Fort Carson enabling 24/7 support capability, possession of security clearances and Common Access Cards, and status as the Federal Government Value Added Reseller and preferred vendor for Fort Carson's Access Control and CCTV systems. The contracting officer certified the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable based on previous contracts of similar nature and approved the justification to limit competition, with certifications signed by Julia E. Gomez, Contracting Officer.

Lastly, these systems are highly sensitive in nature and require rapid support 24/7, 365 days a year. BW Secure is physically located within 15 miles of Fort Carson and can provide immediate around-the-clock support. They have multiple technicians which have a security clearance and Common Access Card commensurate with government systems. This allows them unique authority and access rights to the computer systems used for the ACS locally. Based on the above, BW Secure is assessed to be the most responsible source to procure the requested items to satisfy agency requirements.
b. This modernization project supports physical security and enables a continued strong force protection posture in the 10th SFG(A) compound. Moreover, it enhances protection against criminal activity and sabotage while protecting Soldiers and Government systems in accordance with AR 190-51, Ch. 6-4, para. e. (2).
c. BW Secure can immediately begin work without the additional cost associated with acquiring a new vendor. This ensures the project is completed in the shortest possible timeframe, minimizing disruption to base operations and security. Using the incumbent contractor avoids the administrative delays of a new solicitation and the operational delays of coordinating between a new installation contractor and BW Secure for system integration. This streamlined approach prevents potential security gaps that could arise during a prolonged or complicated integration process involving multiple parties.
