- Description
- Notice of Intent: Under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers intends to require, on a sole source basis, a brand name requirement for the manufacturer Advantor to supply the Electronic Safety and Security System components for Building 27 Repair project at Barnes Air National Guard Base, Westfield, MA.� Barnes currently features an Advantor base-wide security system which is capable of detecting alarm signals at discrete locations in the buildings throughout the base and transmitting this information to the central reporting station. This integrated security system is used base-wide and interconnects each building to the other. With the Advantor security system, the Base security personnel can respond appropriately based on the specific, point to point information transmitted. The Advantor security system is the existing standardized security system installed and operated in the current building and base-wide at Barnes Air National Guard Base. The new security panel to support the building addition must integrate with the existing Advantor system at Building 27 and relay information to central security monitoring. �The new panel to expand the existing security system must be of the same manufacturer�s product, i.e., Advantor, to ensure system compatibility and full integration with the existing system.� The security system is an essential part of Air National Guard personnel's ability to maintain effective monitoring capabilities on Safety and Security. In case of emergency, the security alerts must be transmitted to security forces immediately. This critical system must operate reliably with the base-wide system. Other manufacturers� components cannot fully integrate to operate with the existing system seamlessly and reliably, creating an unacceptable, life-threatening risk should failures occur. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS.� It is a market research tool being used to determine the availability of other qualified sources that can meet the requirements identified above and inherent with the referenced Advantor security reporting system.� The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for any information received from potential sources as a result of this notice of intent.� All responses received within 15 days of the posting of this notice of intent will be considered by the Government.� A determination by the Government to require the brand name for the Advantor security system is solely within the discretion of the Government.� Information received will normally be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to allow alternate system manufacturers.
