Notice of Intent to Sole source - Monaco Enterprises Inc. - PMI Services

Summary: Background The 22nd Contracting Squadron at McConnell AFB, Kansas, is seeking to award a firm fixed price contract to Monaco Enterprises Inc. for preventative maintenance inspection services for the D-21 system hardware and software, which is part of the Monaco Mass Notification System platform. This contract is justified under the premise that only one responsible source can meet the agency's requirements, as Monaco Enterprises is the original manufacturer and service provider of the equipment currently in use. Work Details The contractor will provide preventative maintenance inspection (PMI) services for the D-21 system hardware and software. This includes servicing sensitive electrical components that are vulnerable to damage from excessive heat and moisture. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent total system failure, safeguard sensitive data, and maintain system performance. The work must be performed by a Monaco certified installer to ensure proper integration with existing systems and compliance with warranty requirements. Period of Performance The geographic location(s) the contract will be performed (if provided) Place of Performance McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas. Bidder Requirements Bidders must be licensed by Monaco Enterprises Inc. and have certified installers to perform the required services. Only Monaco Enterprises can fulfill this requirement due to proprietary rights over the equipment and services needed for the Mass Notification System. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) The prior contract history indicates a confirmed incumbent, Monaco Enterprises, with two recent awards supporting preventative maintenance inspection and related upgrade/service work for the D-21 system hardware and software within the Monaco Mass Notification System platform at McConnell AFB. The earlier efforts (FA462124P0049 at $61,772 and FA462125P0030 at $58,718) both reference annual PMI support for the same D-21 components used for fire alarm, detection, and mass notification functions, suggesting the current sole-source action is a continuation of ongoing maintenance/inspection requirements rather than a new capability.
