- Description
- This is a Notice of Intent published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. This Notice of Intent is for a proposed award of a sole source, firm-fixed price contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. It is not a request for competitive quotes. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 23 intends to award a sole source, firm-fixed price contract to Johnson Controls as Johnson Control has proprietary ownership of the current security system (Lynk) utilized on the Sioux Falls VA campus. Any new equipment that is purchased and installed as part of this contract would need to be able to integrate with the existing system. Johnson Control is the only source that can provide the Sioux Falls VA with the necessary equipment, software, and annual licensing requirements. VA requires the proprietary maintenance and repair services from Johnson Controls in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements because the software and services are unique or proprietary to Johnson Controls. Market research revealed that Johnson Controls is the proprietary developer and distributor for the equipment currently being utilized by VA. The camera and security system is routinely used by VA to provide security services for veterans in the VA Healthcare System. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 561621 and the service code is 6710. While this synopsis does not constitute a solicitation, interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the requirement. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. The Government understands that Johnson Controls is the only vendor that can provide the requested services. However, vendors that believe they can provide the capabilities required to fully meet the Government's requirement may submit information in writing to melissa.garrett@va.gov by March 30, 2023. Such documentation will be reviewed solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis. A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government.
