This purpose of this Special Notice is to indicate the New Hampshire Air National Guard's intent to award on a sole source basis to Acoustic Technology Inc (ATI), in accordance with (IAW) FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Source). The Government earlier posted a sources sought notice W50S8A25QA001 on 24 October 24.
Pease Air National Guard Base (ANGB) requires the programing & installation of a Mass Warning Notification System on-site in Newington, NH. This work includes design work as well as the base-wide configuration of all components and integration with existing systems. National Guard Bureau (NGB) originally managed this effort through an agency-wide contract (W9133L-18-F-0042). The original contract was terminated in early 2021 in response to COVID-19. ATI was a subcontractor who was tasked with performance at Pease during that time. Although ATI delivered the system, they could not complete the site-work prior to termination. The hardware has been in storage ever since, and Pease must now contract independently to complete the project. The Government intends to sole source an award to ATI due to the equipment’s proprietary nature and as a logical follow on to the legacy contract.
If a vendor disagrees with the Government's intent to sole source to ATI please provide clear and compelling evidence that you have the ability to perform the required functions of this project, i.e. can configure/program ATI equipment and software.
