Public Notice for Sole Source Determination - DormaKaba 790 RFID Locks

The State of Oregon, through its Oregon Military Department, is procuring DormaKaba 790 RFID electronic door locks and associated proprietary hardware to replace end-of-life DormaKaba magnetic stripe locks at Camp Rilea Armed Forces Training Center. This sole source procurement is being conducted under Oregon Revised Statute 279B.075 and Oregon Administrative Rule 125-247-0275, with Anixter Inc., an authorized DormaKaba distributor, serving as the sales channel and quotation provider, while DormaKaba will directly perform all installation services. The procurement encompasses RFID locks, proprietary hardware, and complete installation to maintain secure and functional access control at the facility while ensuring compatibility with Camp Rilea's existing door hardware, mortise infrastructure, and Front Desk Unit programming system. The requirement is specifically for a non-networked RFID solution to reduce cybersecurity risks while maintaining operational simplicity and preserving the existing security infrastructure. The written protest period extends until 2:00 P.M. Pacific Time on Friday, January 30, 2026, with protests submitted to Corey Brech at the Oregon Military Department by hard copy mail or email with a valid signature. Sole source justification is based on compatibility requirements, as the DormaKaba 790 RFID locks are the only locks compatible with Camp Rilea's existing DormaKaba infrastructure; market research confirmed that alternative manufacturers' RFID locks are incompatible and would require complete system replacement at significantly higher costs with extended operational disruption. Supporting documentation includes DormaKaba's March 13, 2019 Notice of Retirement for magstripe locks, Anixter's quotation dated January 12, 2026, and federal procurement precedent from U.S. Navy contracts specifying DormaKaba RFID locks as brand-name only.

No set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or incumbent vendor designations are specified in this sole source determination, as the procurement is limited to the single qualified source due to technical compatibility constraints. DormaKaba requires exclusive installation by its own personnel to ensure warranty coverage and proper system configuration, thereby restricting service delivery to DormaKaba personnel only. The procurement requires integration with existing Camp Rilea infrastructure, including current door preps, mortise hardware, and the existing Front Desk Unit programming system, all of which are proprietary DormaKaba components that necessitate the sole source determination. The estimated total contract value is $97,873.58, as documented in Anixter's Quotation Q00G8DBV dated January 12, 2026. No information regarding contract term, renewal options, or alternative funding sources is disclosed in the public notice, which primarily serves to announce the sole source determination and establish formal protest procedures.
