About this file

This document is a justification for other than full and open competition for a federal contract. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office Office of Acquisition Management is seeking to procure two MAD MosaicONE VMS communication devices for an elevator modernization project at the Jack Brooks Federal Building in Beaumont, Texas. The procurement value is estimated at under $650,000. A sole source justification is being used because the MAD MosaicONE VMS is currently the only communication system approved for use on the GSA network and in its facilities, as other systems are still being reviewed. Once additional systems are approved, future contracts will be made available competitively.
