    A-2 JA Brand Name APC UPS LX.pdf
    The Utah Army National Guard seeks approval for a new firm fixed-price contract to procure UPS Symmetra LX battery backup and power management equipment. The justification for selecting this brand is based on statutory authority under FAR 6.302-1(c), which allows for limited competition. The rationale includes the need for standardization across the UTARNG's extensive network, avoiding service disruptions tied to alternative switching equipment, and mitigating high costs associated with transitioning to competitor hardware. The specifics include that the new equipment seamlessly integrates with existing proprietary systems, ensuring operational efficiency and reliability. Pricing for this contract will be established based on competitive quotes from authorized retailers to ensure value and cost-effectiveness, and the acquisition will be limited to vendors within the Army's IT mandatory source, CHESS. Market research supports this approach, assuring that past contracts were considered to gauge fair pricing. Both the technical personnel and contracting officer affirm the accuracy of this justification, underscoring the importance of proper equipment acquisition for the Utah National Guard's operational capacity.

    The document is a Small Business Coordination Record (DD Form 2579) detailing a government procurement for the installation and licensing of an APC Symmetra LX at Camp Williams and North Salt Lake. The total estimated value for the procurement is $126,228.09, to be performed between September 30, 2024, and November 30, 2024. It is classified as a new requirement, and the contracting officer, William T. Brown, has initiated coordination to explore small business participation, including possible set-asides for various small business categories such as HUBZone and women-owned businesses. In market research, it was found that many small business vendors could have met the requirements through the mandated CHESS program, which focuses on commercial IT hardware and software. However, during the initial request for quotes (RFQ) period, no proposals were received from small business vendors, prompting a reposting of the requirement as a full and open competition. This highlights the commitment to maximizing small business participation in federal procurement while addressing unmet requirements through wider competition. The document also includes sections for reviews and endorsements from small business professionals and procurement center representatives, indicating a structured oversight process in government procurement activities.
