About this file
This document is a Sole Source Justification for the purchase of Fire Alarm Central Station Technical Maintenance and Licensing Services from Micro Key Solutions under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The Army Contracting Command-Sierra Army Depot is the procuring activity for this 2-year, $18,100 contract, which will be funded with Army Working Capital Funds. Micro Key Solutions is the sole authorized provider and servicing agent for the proprietary Diamond Key software used depot-wide to monitor fire alarms and related sensors and equipment. Ongoing maintenance and licensing are required to obtain upgrades, bug fixes, patch remedies, security updates, and version upgrades to the software and databases, as well as technical support. Market research has shown that replacing the Diamond Key software would cost an estimated $500,000 and require replacing all associated hardware, making Micro Key Solutions the only capable source.

6. Market Research: Micro Key Solutions Diamond Key software is used at SIAD to monitor all fire alarms and related sensors and equipment Depot-wide.

It is estimated that replacement of Central Station Diamond Key software with a different software could cost $500,000.00. Installation and use of new alarm software would cause a need to replace of all receivers (which convert radio signals to computer code) and transmitters (which transmit the converted radio signals to alarms) and all existing fire alarm panels as well as the entire alarm communications infrastructure to ensure that it all functions with the new software.
