    The Department of Defense, specifically the Marine Corps Field Contracting System at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, intends to award a sole source contract to Axon Enterprise, Inc. for the procurement of 50 Axon AB3 body cameras, nine 8-port docking stations, and wall mounts. This acquisition aims to enhance the evidence collection and review capabilities of Military and Civilian Police Officers, thereby improving training and operational effectiveness through better oversight of officer actions during critical incidents.

    This document is a solicitation for commercial items, specifically for the procurement of Axon AB3 Body Cameras and related equipment by the U.S. Marine Corps. The solicitation number is M6700124Q1200, issued on August 29, 2024, with an offer due date of September 6, 2024. The procurement is set aside for small businesses and includes detailed instructions on required submissions from offerors, including technical capabilities, pricing, and necessary representations and certifications. The contract encompasses the delivery of 50 body cameras, 9 wall mounts, and 9 eight-bay docks, all to be delivered to the Provost Marshal’s Office in Beaufort, SC. Delivery is required within 30 days of contract activation, and items will be inspected and accepted at the destination by government representatives. The document outlines several clauses and certifications, including compliance with telecommunications regulations, environmental certifications, and representations related to the usage of covered telecommunications equipment. Evaluation criteria focus on pricing, capability, and past performance, promoting transparency and ensuring compliance with federal procurement standards.
    This memorandum outlines the determination for using a sole source procurement under the FAR Part 13 simplified acquisition threshold by the Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Beaufort's Provost Marshal Office. The request involves purchasing 50 Axon AB3 body cameras, nine 8-port docking stations, and wall mounts to enhance evidence collection and review capabilities for police officers. The justification for sole sourcing is based on the exclusive availability of the equipment from the manufacturer, Axon, which has proprietary rights and does not permit distribution through resellers. The previous purchase from 2023 included a proprietary online system for video storage that requires integration with the Axon cameras for automated uploads to avoid errors. This acquisition was initially posted as a small business set-aside but confirmed that Axon only authorizes direct sales. The urgency of the procurement is indicated, although specific details on timing and delivery were not disclosed. The certification statements affirm the accuracy and completeness of the justification provided for this acquisition decision.
