About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security, issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole-source procurement from Johnson Controls, Inc. to troubleshoot and repair the fire alarm system at Coast Guard Base Boston in Massachusetts. The contract involves retrofitting nine buildings by replacing the antiquated Simplex 4100U Fire Alarm Control Units with Simplex 4100S retrofit kits, replacing all existing smoke and heat detectors with Simplex-manufactured equivalent devices, and installing new Simplex fire alarm devices as specified by the Designer of Record. The sole-source justification is based on the finding that Johnson Controls is the only responsible source capable of satisfying the government's requirements, as the company owns the proprietary Simplex software and is exclusively able to ensure system interoperability and reliability; mixing fire alarm devices from different manufacturers would compromise system functionality and safety. The contract was awarded to Johnson Controls, Inc. on February 12, 2026, under contract number 70Z0G126CBOST0002, with the award amount redacted from the published documentation. The procurement is structured as a Firm Fixed Price contract funded through Fiscal Year 2025 appropriations, with market research conducted on June 12, 2025, confirming Johnson Controls' sole-source status.
