single source justification SCADAd_Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for a SCADA Software and Hardware procurement at Eielson AFB, Alaska. The contract, valued at $46,178.96, covers the supply of a Boiler Room SCADA system designed to monitor two Cleaver Brooks Hawk 4500 combustion control PLCs. The system includes full SCADA software licenses, real-time data acquisition, user-friendly interfaces, hardware components (PC workstation, high-resolution monitor), and system integration services.

The document justifies a single-source solicitation based on the current installer's unique historical data and compatibility with existing boiler room equipment. The 354 CES notes that their current equipment is obsolete, and the vendor is the only company offering a SCADA Monitoring System specific to their boilers. The contracting officer has determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that only a single source is reasonably available. The procurement is intended to prevent potential widespread heating outages across the base and is considered a one-time occurrence due to specific system requirements.
