JA_MCLB Albany_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other than Full and Open Competition for a brand name procurement by the US Army Engineer District, Corps of Engineers. The document seeks to acquire a Monaco BT-XM radio alarm transceiver for the new 200-member Army Reserve Center construction project at Marine Corps Logistics Base (MCLB) in Albany, GA.

The procurement is sole-sourced due to the specific technical requirements of integrating with the existing base-wide communication system, which currently uses Monaco Enterprises, Inc. (D-21 system). The project includes primary facilities such as land acquisition, construction of an Army Reserve Center, Vehicle Maintenance Shop, Unheated Storage Building, site development, utilities, parking, and landscaping. The estimated contract value is partially redacted, with the J&A indicating the action is approximately 0.03% of the total estimated contract cost. A Notice of Intent was posted on 29 April 2025 with a response date of 14 May 2025, and the document includes certifications from the Project Manager, Project Engineer, and Contracting Officer affirming the rationale for the sole-source procurement.
