- Description
- The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a sole-source Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with Motorola U.S. Federal Government Markets Division, 7031 Columbia Gateway Drive, 3 rd Floor, Columbia, MD, 21046, under RFQ 396911. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This notice will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website (www.fedbizopps.gov). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. The existing land mobile radio (LMR) infrastructure, manufactured and built by Motorola, employs a unique encoding design proprietary to Motorola. The FBI uses Motorola equipment spanning several generations for its radio system communications that subsequently requires hybrid components also unique to the LMR infrastructure. Motorola will repair the LMR infrastructure equipment to include all types and generations of Motorola equipment. Based on market research conducted and contacts made with knowledgeable individuals within the government, and the related industry, it has been determined the FBI's requirement for the referenced repair services can only be provided by Motorola. The infrastructure equipment spans generations' dating back to the early 1980's, thus making it increasingly difficult to service and repair, and both the original and hybrid components employ the unique, proprietary encoding system necessitating repairs performance by Motorola.
