Agency and Contracting Activity - U.S. Coast Guard, C3CEN CAMS/COMMSTA Product Line, proposes to enter into a contract on a basis other than full and open competition and hereby presents this Justification for other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for review and approval. 2. Nature and/or Description of the Action Being Approved - This J&A seeks approval to contract for structural repairs on the enhanced Mobile Incident Command Post (referred to as eMICP#2) in order return the eMICP to full operational status. Due to pertinent low level schematics being the sole proprietary property of the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), Featherlite Incorporated, 816 7th Avenue East, Cresco, IA, all standardization work requiring access to those documents will necessitate that Featherlite Inc. be the sole service provider. Request approval to proceed with this acquisition utilizing a firm-fixed-price contract for the purchase of parts and labor necessary to realize full repairs to eMICP#2. It is anticipated that one purchase order will be negotiated and awarded. 3. Description of Supplies/Services- The requirement is to procure repairs that have been identified as necessary to return eMICP#2 to fully operational capability. Repairs will include, but are not limited to: resealing the roof, repairing water damaged sections, and strengthen the front wall against warping. This process will repair existing damage to eMICP # 2, allowing it to fulfill its operational capabilities as well reduce the risk for further water damage. 1 JB Repair of Enhanced Mobile Incident Command Post (eMICP) Total Estimated Cost: 55,000.00 4. Identification of Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition- 41 U.S.C 428 (a) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 entitled "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements". Only the OEM, Featherlite Incorporated, is capable of satisfying agency requirements. 5. Demonstration That the nature of the Acquisition Requires Use of the Authority Cited - Featherlite Incorporated is the sole developer and manufacturer of all fundamental electrical, mechanical, and structural systems inherent in eMICP#1. This exclusivity also includes ownership of all primary diagrams, schematics, and blueprints which are critical to the repair effort. Featherlite Inc.'s proprietary knowledge base, coupled with a workforce that is intimately familiar with the asset and an active facility capable of meeting the USCG demands demonstrates the aforementioned authority to be the only supplier capable of meeting all standardization requirements. 6. Description of Efforts made to Ensure that Offers are Solicited from as Many Potential Sources as is Practicable - In accordance with FAR 5.201, the intent to contract for the repair of eMICP#2 will be advertised in the Electronic Posting System (EPS), Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) as a combined synopsis solicitation under 7. A determination by the Contracting Officer that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable. The Contracting Officer will determine Price Fair and Reasonableness from Comparison of previous acquisitions for similar purchases IAW FAR 13.106-3 8. Description of market Research - eMICP#2 is not logistically supported by other Government agencies. Featherlite Inc., the OEM, is the sole developer of eMICPs. As such, any other vender would need to acquire all necessary proprietary documents from Featherlite Inc., thus increasing costs and time associated with the standardization effort. Further factors limiting potential vendors include the immediate capacity to modify and transport equipment weighing approximately 57,000LBs, with an approximate height of 13FT, a length of approximately 54FT, and a width of approximately 20.5FT fully extended. 9. Any other Facts Support the Use of Other Than Full and Open Competition - As the OEM, Featherlite Inc personnel are knowledgeable about the operation of the eMICP. The risk of operator error causing damage is minimized by utilizing the OEM who is intimately familiar with the set up procedures. 10. A Listing of the Sources, if Any, That expressed In writing, an Interest in the Acquisition None know at this time. 11. A Statement of the Actions, if Any, the Agency May take to Remove or Overcome Any Barriers to Competition Before Any Subsequent Acquisitions for the Supplies or Services Required None at this time 12. Contracting Officer's Certification - I certify that the data supporting the recommended use of the other than full and open competition is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. James A. Lassiter Contracting Officer 13. Evidence that any supporting data that is the responsibility of Technical/Requirements Personnel I certify this requirement meets the Government's minimum need and that the supporting data, which forms a basis for this justification, is complete and accurate. LT Jennifer Rogers Technical Representative Enhanced Mobile Incident Command Post #2(eMICP) Repairs Statement of Work (SOW) April 2013 Prepared by United States Coast Guard Command, Control and Communications Engineering Center 4000 Coast Guard Blvd Portsmouth, VA 23703 GENERAL The United States Coast Guard (USCG), beginning in 2006, developed the enhanced Mobile Incident Command Posts (eMICPs) as part of the Mobile Command Centers (MCC) Project. VSE Cooperation completed the design and manufacture of two eMICPs in conjunction with Featherlite Trailers. The eMICP is a communications trailer providing secure and non-secure voice, radio, satellite and data transfer interoperability with Coast Guard units, State, local and Federal partners. The trailer is designed with two slide outs that extend to form a central conference room in which command operations can be maintained. The eMICP #2, located at CAMS LANT in Chesapeake, VA has been deployed regularly to support both routine communications surges, like the Republican National Convention, and for disaster assistance, specifically Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Most recently, the eMICP returned from Cape Girardeau, Mo where they provided support of low water operations on the Mississippi River. Since Hurricane Sandy made landfall on 27 October 2012 eMICP #2 has been deployed 74 days in less than 4 months. The regular transportation and use, in conjunction with normal wear and tear has resulted in cracks in the laminate inside the conference space, and a leaking roof that needs resealing among other things. Repairs are necessary in order to keep eMICP #2 in a good operating condition so that it can continue the operational pace in which it has over the past year. SCOPE This Purchase Request (PR) provides funding to make necessary repairs to eMICP #2 to keep it in top operating condition to meet the needs of the contingency communications mission. This PR will provide funding for the following activities: • Reseal the roof • Fix the door in the middle of the trailer • Re-Key all 27 Locks • Replace Ceiling vents • Replace all cracked laminate • Check all inserts for slideouts for sealing issues • Find and fix leak in the mudroom, replace walls and all laminate, • Repair Communications Space access door jam. • Reinforce front wall/ door to minimize warping of door separate from wall • Repair warped deck plate • Fix sticking of rear external access • Add additional fall protection in the form of a second life line parallel to the first • Add hinges to outside access that does not have any • Touch up external access after installing hinges • Fix cabinet door in communications space SECTION 508 COMPLIANCE Accessibility Requirements (Section 508) Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, as amended by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-220) requires that when Federal agencies develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology (EIT), they must ensure that it is accessible to people with disabilities. Federal employees and members of the public who have disabilities must have equal access to and use of information and data that is comparable to that enjoyed by non-disabled Federal employees and members of the public. All EIT deliverables within this work statement shall comply with the applicable technical and functional performance criteria of Section 508 unless exempt. Specifically, the following applicable EIT accessibility standards have been identified: 1.2.1 Section 508 Applicable EIT Accessibility Standards 36 CFR 1194.21 Software Applications and Operating Systems, applies to all EIT software applications and operating systems procured or developed under this work statement including but not limited to GOTS and COTS software. In addition, this standard is to be applied to Web-based applications when needed to fulfill the functional performance criteria. This standard also applies to some Web based applications as described within 36 CFR 1194.22. 36 CFR 1194.22 Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications, applies to all Web-based deliverables, including documentation and reports procured or developed under this work statement. When any Web application uses a dynamic (non-static) interface, embeds custom user control(s), embeds video or multimedia, uses proprietary or technical approaches such as, but not limited to, Flash or Asynchronous Javascript and XML (AJAX) then 1194.21 Software standards also apply to fulfill functional performance criteria. 36 CFR 1194.31 Functional Performance Criteria, applies to all EIT deliverables regardless of delivery method. All EIT deliverable shall use technical standards, regardless of technology, to fulfill the functional performance criteria. 36 CFR 1194.41 Information Documentation and Support, applies to all documents, reports, as well as help and support services. To ensure that documents and reports fulfill the required 1194.31 Functional Performance Criteria, they shall comply with the technical standard associated with Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications at a minimum. In addition, any help or support provided in this work statement that offer telephone support, such as, but not limited to, a help desk shall have the ability to transmit and receive messages using TTY. 1.2.2 Section 508 Applicable Exceptions Exceptions for this work statement have been determined by DHS and only the exceptions described herein may be applied. Any request for additional exceptions shall be sent to the COTR and determination will be made in accordance with DHS MD 4010.2. DHS has identified the following exceptions that may apply: 36 CFR 1194.3(b) Incidental to Contract, all EIT that is exclusively owned and used by the contractor to fulfill this work statement does not require compliance with Section 508. This exception does not apply to any EIT deliverable, service or item that will be used by any Federal employee(s) or member(s) of the public. This exception only applies to those contractors assigned to fulfill the obligations of this work statement and for the purposes of this requirement, are not considered members of the public. 1.2.3 Section 508 Compliance Requirements 36 CFR 1194.2(b) (COTS/GOTS products), When procuring a product, each agency shall procure products which comply with the provisions in this part when such products are available in the commercial marketplace or when such products are developed in response to a Government solicitation. Agencies cannot claim a product as a whole is not commercially available because no product in the marketplace meets all the standards. If products are commercially available that meet some but not all of the standards, the agency must procure the product that best meets the standards. When applying this standard, all procurements of EIT shall have documentation of market research that identify a list of products or services that first meet the agency business needs, and from that list of products or services, an analysis that the selected product met more of the accessibility requirements than the non-selected products as required by FAR 39.2.
