About this file
This document appears to be a Sole Source Justification for a federal contract opportunity related to fire suppression system monitoring and repair services. The key details are:
The Department of Agriculture Forest Service intends to award a sole source contract to Johnson Controls Fire Protection for Simplex fire alarm panel monitoring and repair services. This is due to Johnson Controls' proprietary licensing rights for the Simplex fire alarm systems used at the San Bernardino National Forest Headquarters. Previous sole source contracts for these services were AG-9AB5-D-17-0012 and 127EAT23F0016. No competition is possible due to the proprietary licensing rights. The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated costs will be fair and reasonable based on review of past purchases. No market research was conducted as Johnson Controls was the only potential source identified. This sole source justification supports the upcoming federal contract opportunity for "Fire Suppression Systems Inspections and Maintenance" at the Department of Agriculture Forest Service.
