Monaco System Interconnectivity

The Oregon Military Department is procuring Monaco Fire Detection and Alarm System equipment and integration services for installation at the Portland Air National Guard Base. This sole source procurement involves the purchase and installation of a Monaco Fire Detection and Alarm panel and transmitter equipment designed to integrate with the existing Monaco fire alarm system currently operational at the facility. The primary objective is to expand and enhance the fire detection and alarm capabilities at the base while maintaining compatibility with the established Monaco system infrastructure. The procurement includes both equipment delivery and integration services necessary to ensure seamless operation with the existing central station receiving equipment. The estimated total contract value is $75,000.00, with the procurement justified under Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 279B.075 and Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 125-247-0275. The posting date for this opportunity was May 21, 2026, with a proposal due date of May 28, 2026, providing a seven-day response window for interested parties.

This is a sole source procurement restricted to Monaco Enterprises, Inc., the sole qualified vendor capable of providing compatible equipment for integration with the existing Monaco fire alarm system at Portland Air National Guard Base. The sole source justification is based on technical compatibility requirements and cost considerations, as the proprietary nature of the Monaco system and the specialized central station receiving equipment currently installed can only integrate with compatible Monaco transceivers. The incumbent system already in use includes three personnel who receive Monaco-specific training annually, and acquiring a different alarm system would necessitate replacement of the entire existing infrastructure at substantially greater cost while duplicating training and maintenance expenses. Maintaining compatibility with the current Monaco system eliminates the need to support multiple fire alarm systems, thereby avoiding doubled annual expenditures for training, maintenance contracts, spare parts inventory, and specialized technician support. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or other organizational restrictions are indicated in the available documentation. The contract award value is estimated at $75,000.00.
