- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6 - Acquisitions of Commercial Items and FAR 13 - Simplified Acquisition Procedures as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation SP3300-12-Q-0107 is being issued as a Request For Quote (RFQ). This notice incorporates provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-60 effective 27 August 2012, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) DPN 20120829 edition, and Defense Logistics Acquisition Directive (DLAD) Current to Revision 5 and PROCLTR 2012-48. The complete text of any of the clauses and provisions may be accessed in full text at http://farsite.hill.af.mil. This acquisition is unrestricted to business size. For informational purposes only, the associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334220 with a small business size standard of 750 employees. This is a brand name acquisition for Motorola Solutions, Inc. XTS 1500 radios and associated accessories. Only brand Motorola XTS 1500 will meet the agency's needs. Brand name justification: DLA Distribution Acquisitions (J7), 2001 Mission Drive, New Cumberland PA 17070 has a requirement from DLA Information Operations New Cumberland to procure 28 Motorola Solutions, Inc. (Motorola) brand XTS1500 Land Mobile Radios (LMR) with associated accessories for the Logistics Distribution Center Europe which is part of the DLA Distribution Europe located in Germersheim, Germany. The acquisition is being restricted to brand name Motorola in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), only one brand will meet the agency's requirements. DLA Distribution Deutschland Europe (DDDE), which includes the Logistics Distribution Center Europe, relies on the Motorola Trunk System that is maintained by the ARMY 5th and 43rd Signal Commands. DDDE receives operational support from the ARMY for the Motorola radios currently in place. If DLA utilizes any other LMR brand other than Motorola, DLA Distribution will need to establish its own LMR office duplicating the efforts of the ARMY to support another brand LMR system. The cost of establishing a LMR office would outweigh any cost potential cost savings from procuring another brand. Also, DLA Distribution would have two LMR platforms that require their own proprietary equipment, programming languages, and support that will make it difficult to coordinate any system changes or handling emergency through over-the-air programming. In order for DLA Distribution to maximize resources and reduce costs, DLA Distribution requires Motorola LMR equipment for DDDE which includes Logistics Distribution Europe to ensure the radios are interchangeable and to maintain daily operational support from the ARMY. As a result of the above, it is hereby determined that it is in the Government's best interest to conduct this acquisition on a sole source basis, limiting sources based on the use of a brand name specification.
