Description
NASA Headquarters (HQ), Facilities and Administrative Services Division, is planning to procure additional Motorola UHF communications portable radio systems and equipment for the HQ?s Emergency Management and Safety Group. The Headquarters Emergency Management and Safety group needs secure portable radios to communicate with the HQ Security force during emergencies and other events affecting the HQ facility and or its occupants. Wireless Communications, Inc. has installed and currently maintains NASA HQs Motorola UHF two-way radio systems which includes on-site repeaters with a split antenna system, base stations and portable radios. Wireless Communications Inc. holds the system key for programming the frequency?s, PL codes, band-split and MDC1200 signaling of unit ID?s. The programming of additional radios will need to match the existing portables, base stations and repeaters, so that they do not cause interference with other Federal Government agencies located in the immediate area. Wireless Communications, Inc. has maintained and updated the data base for all radios utilized within the NASA Headquarters facility. The existing antenna system was engineered and installed by Wireless Communications Inc. Coverage within the building and surrounding area has been tested and found to meet the requirements of NASA Headquarters. Wireless Communications Inc. maintains the serialized equipment list that matches the unit ID?s associated with each radio. Wireless Communications Inc is the only Motorola Authorized Sales and Service facility located in Washington, DC. It is in the best interest of the government to continue with the current contactor because of system key programming security and duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition. Therefore, NASA/HQ intends to issue a Sole Source Procurement to purchase the additional Motorola UHF communication devices from Wireless Communications, Inc., Baltimore, MD. The authority is FAR 6.302-1 (a)(2) "only one responsible source" When the supplies or services required by the agency are available from only one responsible source, or , for DoD, NASA, and the Coast Guard, from only one or a limited number of responsible sources, and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, full and open competition need no be provided for. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing, by FAX or E-Mail, to the identified point of contact not later than 12:30 p.m. local time on January 11, 2008. Such capabilities/ qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. FAX or E-Mail any inquiries to the identified point of contact. All responsible sources may submit their qualifications which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed. See NASA Specific Note "B".
