- Notice of Proposed Contract Action: Project Name/RFQ#: Access Control System (Key Card Entry) RFQ-1112 Project Site: Western Oregon Service Unit, Salem, Oregon RE: Sole Source/ Justification for other than full and open competition Agency/Contracting Activity: Indian Health Service, Portland Area Office, 1414 NW Northrup, Ste. 800, Portland, Oregon, 97209 Authority: FAR 6.302-1(b)(1)(i) Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The government intends to award a sole source procurement to Aronson Security Group, Inc. (ASG) under the authority cited under FAR 6.302-1, FAR 13.106-1(b). This is not a request for competitive quotes. A justification for other than full and open competition has been prepared in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 b)(1)(i), Only One Responsible Source, and per the department's acquisition regulation at HHSAR 306.303-1(b)(1). Simplified Acquisitions Procedures with aspects of FAR Part 36 is the proposed acquisition method. The requirement is for the installation of a Physical Access Control System at the IHS's Western Oregon Service Unit in Salem, Oregon. The applicable NAICS code is 541519, Information Technology Value Added Resellers. The system shall be a client system compatible with existing host system at the Portland Area Office. The requirement includes the following: Installation (including some construction/retrofitting of clinic's electrical and door hardware) of a Physical Access Control System / Key Card Reader system. The components of the system include card readers to control 8 doors, a card panel, OnGuard software, value added services including system set up/ customization and database segmentation. Customization will also include vendor services to define alarm notifications. The proposed vendor will also provide on-site training of personnel on use of the system. The procurement includes a requirement for a brand-name justification (Lenel/OnGuard) and the proposed installer must be certified by the manufacturer, Lenel. Market research was conducted to determine if the project could be solicited competitively. The manufacturer of the equipment, Lenel, was contacted to determine if Lenel-certified installers were available on GSA schedule to provide installation services for the Salem/Portland area. Lenel indicated that no Lenel-certified installers were available on GSA schedule to serve this area. The proposed contractor, Aronson Security Group (ASG), is the existing "vendor of record" for the Portland Area host system and installed the system at the Portland Area office. ASG is Lenel-certified and has knowledge of the existing Portland office. The Portland Area IHS's existing service and maintenance agreement with ASG, in effect through August 2012, prohibits third party labor, parts, or equipment without voiding the agreement. The Contracting Officer will ensure that all prices paid for hardware, software, and components will be fair and reasonable. The prices paid for installation / construction services can be considered fair and reasonable based on review of prior acquisitions for similar systems by the agency. Any questions regarding this acquisition should be directed to the Contract Specialist, Anita MacAuley at (503) 414-5524 or by email to Anita.MacAuley@ihs.gov.
