About this opportunity
The 355th Contracting Squadron announced a sole-source intent for preventative maintenance and inspection services on the Monaco D21 Fire Alarm Reporting System at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, with responses due by September 18, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET. This is not a solicitation and quotes are not being accepted; the notice invites interested parties to demonstrate whether competitive procurement is warranted. Monaco Enterprises Incorporated holds exclusive ownership of all system software, firmware, communication protocols, and integration pathways, rendering it the sole source capable of performing the required services under the justification that no competing vendor is authorized or technically equipped to service Monaco's proprietary architecture. The procurement constitutes a five-year follow-on to Contract FA487722F0066 (base year plus four option years), covering five CLINs across Davis-Monthan AFB. The system recently completed a mandatory Windows 11 migration under Monaco contract, and competing the requirement would mandate complete infrastructure replacement and reprogramming with significant mission disruption and operational risk. Interested vendors must submit capability information to Kody McPherson (kody.mcpherson.1@us.af.mil) and Contracting Officer Jerry Sauder (jerry.sauder.1@us.af.mil). The Government retains sole discretion to proceed with competitive procurement based on responses received and will not reimburse submission costs.

The Government intends to issue a sole source award for Preventative Maintenance and Inspection (PMI) services for the Monaco D‑21 Fire Alarm Reporting System currently installed across Davis‑Monthan AFB. This requirement is a follow‑on procurement to Contract FA487722F0066 for a five year contract (Base Year plus Four Option Years). The existing system architecture remains fully proprietary to Monaco Enterprises Incorporated (MEI), and MEI retains exclusive ownership of all software, firmware, communication protocols, and integration pathways associated with the D‑21 system.
All interested parties must respond no later than 18 September 2026 at 1200 PM ET to Kody McPherson at kody.mcpherson.1@us.af.mil and Contracting Officer Jerry Sauder at jerry.sauder.1@us.af.mil. Responses received will be reviewed in detail; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. Information received will be evaluated exclusively to determine whether a competitive procurement is appropriate.
The 355th Contracting Office will not reimburse parties for any costs associated with submitting capability information.
Interested vendors are encouraged to review the Intent to Sole Source Letter for additional details and RFO references.
