About this file
This is a Single Source Justification for a FLAIM Trainer T3 System, a virtual reality training simulator for multi-domain firefighting operations. The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) intends to procure this system on a sole source basis from Darley, the sole manufacturer and distributor of the FLAIM Trainer in the United States. The estimated contract value is $47,500. Market research found no other comparable systems currently available, and a previous requirement at Minot AFB also identified Darley as the sole source. The Contracting Officer has determined that Darley is the only reasonably available source for this specialized firefighting training equipment.
The related federal contract opportunity is a Special Notice announcing the intent to award this requirement on a sole source basis under FAR 13.106-1(b). Interested parties may contact the Contract Specialist or Contracting Officer regarding this procurement, though the decision to compete the requirement is at the sole discretion of the Contracting Officer.

Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)
CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION
April 2021 CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION Page 1 of 1April 2021 CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION Page 1 of 1
Section A: General Contract Information
Is this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan? Yes No
Contracting Activity: AFLCMC/PZIBB
Project/Program Name: FLAIM Trainer T3 System
Purchase Request / Local ID Number:
Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $47,500.00
Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required
Virtual reality training simulator for multi-domain firefighting operations.
Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name
Darley is the only contractor that can provide the supplies requested. The reason for this is because there are no other productions of a similar system to the FLAIM Trainer currently out on the market that address industry standard firefighting duties across all domains. Additionally, the manufacturer of the FLAIM Trainer solely uses Darley as its sole distributing partner within the United States.
Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition
Extensive market research through various internet sites did not turn up any other company that could provide the desired product as they are currently the only one of its kind. A previous requirement was awarded at Minot AFB and that MRR found no additional suppliers.
Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards
Market survey must be re-accomplished if future requirements exist, to vet for new sources of the product. If the market potentially creates alternatives to this product with equal quality, technical acceptability, and history of similar performance then then potential future acquisitions can look for further competition.
Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination
I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
