    The U.S. Army Installation Management Command (IMCOM) is seeking to standardize Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) systems across Army installations in the Continental U.S., Alaska, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and some overseas locations. The objective is to reduce the number of manufacturers from thirty-eight to four—Honeywell, Johnson Control, Monaco, and Siemens—which account for 99% of existing systems. This standardization aims to improve cost efficiency, minimize downtime, and enhance workforce effectiveness, enabling procurement through Firm-Fixed-Price contracts for replacements or new installations. This notice is not a request for proposals but invites industry feedback on potential limitations to competition and alternative solutions. The Army encourages responses from firms capable of offering comparable products, including details about business size, compliance with the Buy American Act, and lifecycle costs. The statutory authority for this request is based on federal regulations allowing limited competition for specific brand names. The notice also specifies a deadline for inquiries and responses to ensure clarity in the contracting process. Ultimately, the aim is to streamline operations while adhering to efficiency and cost-effectiveness within IMCOM's facilities management strategy.
