Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This document justifies the use of brand-name components for the Monaco Fire Alarm and Mass Notification (FAMN) system as part of the Runway 03-21 Airfield Lighting Repair project at WSAAF (Wheeler-Sack Army Airfield), Fort Drum, NY. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is acquiring and administering this construction project, which will be a firm-fixed-price (FFP) construction contract.

• The project requires the Monaco FAMN system, which is an addressable integrated system with fire monitoring, addressable point reporting, live voice, and mass notification functions.

• The system must be compatible and networkable with the existing Monaco FAMN systems installed throughout Fort Drum to ensure seamless integration and occupant safety.

• The contract type is firm-fixed-price (FFP).

• The contract number is W912DS-21-D-0003.

• Funding is provided by Ft Drum DPW.

• This document is a justification for a brand-name requirement, not a solicitation. The solicitation will be posted separately.

• Market research included a Notice of Intent (NOI) posted on SAM.gov on January 14, 2025, with no responses received.

Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This document justifies the use of brand name components for the "Runway 03-21 Airfield Lighting Repair, Trane Tracer Ensemble" project at Wheeler-Sack Army Airfield (WSAAF), Fort Drum, NY. The government will not purchase components directly but will require offerors to include the Trane Tracer Ensemble system in their proposals for a design-bid-build solicitation. This acquisition is for a new firm-fixed-price construction contract.

• The core requirement is the Trane Tracer Ensemble system, which is a building automation system (BAS) that automates, controls, and monitors building systems (HVAC, lighting, power, fire alarm, security).

• The system must integrate with the existing BAS server at Ft. Drum.

• The project involves the repair and upgrade of runway and airfield lighting infrastructure, including the replacement of the Airfield Lighting Vault (AFLV).

• The contract type is firm-fixed-price (FFP).

• Funding is provided by Ft Drum DPW.

• The solicitation will be a BVTO procurement in accordance with FAR Part 15.

• The solicitation will be synopsized in accordance with FAR 5.201, and responses will be evaluated per FAR Part 15.

• A Notice of Intent (NOI) to determine sources was synopsized on January 21, 2025 (NOI identification number W912DS25S0013). No responses were received.

• Trane is specified due to compatibility issues with other systems and to ensure seamless integration with Ft. Drum's existing BAS.

• Replacing the existing BAS in all buildings to accommodate a different system would be prohibitively costly.
