- Description
- THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY. THIS SYNOPSIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE for Market Research ONLY to determine the availability of the Brand Name Component, Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage and Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens for future upcoming projects. No awards will be made from this Sources Sought Notice. No solicitation will be available at this time. However, responses to this Sources Sought Notice will be used to determine an appropriate acquisition strategy for future acquisitions. The Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District intends to solicit and award construction projects for a customer of Intelligence Community. The construction projects will be solicited competitively under future separate solicitations. These projects may include a Brand Name Only component, as described below, unless the results of this sources sought notification indicates otherwise. This notification serves three purposes: (1) to notify potential offerors of the Government's intent to solicit a brand name only component under future construction projects; (2) to identify potential sources that can provide the brand name only item and/or equivalent; (3) notification of the Army's intent to contract sole source for a Brand Name Only, if the market is unable to provide 'equivalent' products. NOTE: Only that part of the projects requiring the Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage and Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens, is sole source if no sources are able to provide an equivalent system. In the event no equivalent equipment exists, the Brand Name Only justification will be issued pursuant to FAR Part 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source". A subsequent market survey will not be published in support of a Justification and Approval (J&A) for sole sourcing the resultant product(s) or system(s) in the event an equivalent product is not submitted for consideration. In such instances, the brand name or equal component will be embedded in the construction project that will be issued competitively. Only that part of the project requiring brand name components will be sole source if no sources are able to prove an equal product. The construction projects themselves will be competitively solicited. SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENT: The construction projects will include Brand Name only equipment for Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage and Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens. The required features of Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage and Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens are as follows: (1) Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage provides hardware to secure doors and entryways. (2) Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens provides fire alarm systems. Anticipated projects would involve modifications and expansions to existing Fire Alarm Systems. The existing systems are controlled with digital and analog controllers, all of which are supplied by or interfaced with Siemens Fire Alarm Systems. Any vendor wishing to provide a system(s) that is compatible with the existing Schlage Primus Keyway Door Hardware by Ingersoll Rand Schlage and Fire Alarm Systems by Siemens, systems must provide a copy of its brochure and any other data within five calendar days from date of issue, NO LATER THAN 7 June 2011, 2:00 PM EST, to Contract Specialist, Calvin J.
