About this file
This document is a Sole Source Justification form for the Federal Highway Administration's procurement of a new gate access operating system. The document justifies a direct purchase from Convergint Technologies in Nashville, TN for replacing an existing obsolete gate access system at their Sevierville, TN facility. The procurement is valued under $250,000 and being conducted under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures.

SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION
For purchases made under FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures
(Under $250,000)
Name and Location of the organization making the purchase:
Federal Highway Administration 1827 Jack Delozier Drive Sevierville, TN 37876
Describe supplies and/or services being procured:
Procurement of a new gate access operating system to replace the existing, obsolete system, which is no longer repairable.
Name and Contact Information of Required Source:
Convergint 1410 Donelson Pike B-5 Nashville, TN 37217 Point of contact: Joel Cloyd, joel.cloyd@convergint.com, 865-850-1263
Rationale supporting the sole source acquisition (Authority under FAR 13.106-1(b)):
The existing gate access operating system at our facility is obsolete, no longer functioning properly, and cannot be repaired. This system is critical to the operation and security of our facility, allowing employees to remotely open the gate for deliveries and to grant access to visitors attending construction-related meetings. Additionally, it allows real-time monitoring and implementation of security measures to prevent unauthorized entry.
After market research, it was determined that no other vendors within our county are capable of both providing and installing the specific gate access control system required to ensure compatibility with our existing infrastructure. Due to the urgent need to restore gate functionality and maintain facility security, and the lack of available competition locally, Convergint is the only known responsible source able to meet our requirement.
Therefore, a sole source acquisition is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b) as only one source is reasonably available and capable of providing the required system and services.
