About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command has issued a Special Notice regarding a sole source contract for a Degausser/Destruction Device from Data Security, Inc. The notice indicates the government's intent to award a non-competitive procurement for an LM-1 Degausser and DX-8 Hard Drive Destroyer. This procurement is being implemented under FAR 13.106-1(b), which allows for sole source acquisition when only one source can meet the specific requirement. The contract is specifically for a device capable of erasing 3000 Oersted magnetic tape and 5000 Oersted hard disk drives in a one-touch, closed-loop system. The government conducted market research and posted a sources sought notice on SAM.gov, which received only one response from Data Security, Inc.
Interested contractors have until 10:00 AM CST on December 27, 2024, to submit capability statements or quotes via email to benjamin.brittain.2@us.af.mil and kimberley.alvarez.1@us.af.mil. While this is primarily a sole source procurement, the government will consider any proposals received by the specified deadline. The system being procured is notable for being the only NSA Evaluated degauss and destroy system that requires no human intervention and is on the NSA Evaluated Products List (EPL). Contractors should note that this is a special notice of intent to award, not a competitive solicitation, and any submissions will be evaluated at the government's discretion. The procurement is categorized under NAICS 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing) and PSC 7E20 (IT and Telecom - End User support), with a purchase request number of F2J3M24324AW02. The 81st Contracting Squadron will continue to monitor the market for potential future competitive opportunities.
