Synopsis:
The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBC, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433 publishes this notice of intent to award a Brand Name contract for informational purposes only.  The Mobility Directorate requires the installation of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) for Building 558, rooms116.  Training is also required for up to 5 staff members on the system's operation.  The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one Brand Name source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
 
This proposed procurement will be Brand Name under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 561621 - Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths). Business size standard: $20.5 million.
 
The proposed Brand Name source is Predator Elite IDS systems.  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 Local (Wright-Patterson AFB) Time, Friday, 16 August 2019.
 
In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: The IDS must be compatible with the current LINX Predator Elite system in order to tie in to the existing Wright-Patterson AFB system requirements. According to WPAFB Security Forces, the only companies permitted to install the IDS are ESI, Inc. and Xator Corporation.
