NMUSAF Fire Alarm Sytem

Solicitation Number: FA8601-25-Q-0014

Notice Type: Special Notice

Synopsis:

The WPAFB Fire Department oversees the management of all base buildings through a digitized system that utilizes existing phone lines. In relation to the previously awarded Active Shooter Mitigation System contract FA860123P0189, which was granted on September 28, 2023, gunshot sensors and a panic button for the Shooter Detection System are required for installation as part of the Active Shooter Mitigation project. The final phase of this project involves integrating these sensors and buttons into the fire control panels. This integration will activate the release of the Maglocks on emergency exits and enable the mass notification system. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).

This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code NAICS Code 561621- Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths).

Business size standard: S25,000,000 USD.

The proposed source is NMUSAF Fire Alarm Equipment. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract regardless of responses that may be received to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received by 1:00 pm EST on Wednesday, 13 November 2024.

In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: This procurement will be awarded on a sole source basis to PAC, which is a large business. Market Research was conducted and it was determined that no other sources can provide the Automatic Distillation Instruments that can meet the full list of the Aerospace Fuels Laboratory requirements. This acquisition will not be a small business set aside since two or more small businesses cannot provide this requirement.

The Department of Defense (DOD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DOD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DOD. Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for solicitations issued after 29 May 2012. You may contact SAM by telephone at 866-606-8220 or online at https://www.sam.gov.
