The procurement is justified as a single-source acquisition due to the proprietary nature of the equipment, which can only be serviced and maintained by Motorola, the sole authorized vendor, as it possesses unique administrative configurations and warranty coverage.

    The document is a Single Source Justification for a simplified acquisition by 2 CONS/PKA for the LMR Equipment Relocation project. The purpose is to justify why Motorola is the sole source for relocating existing Enterprise Land Mobile Radio equipment to a new Consolidated Communications Facility. The relocation is necessary due to the 2 CS migration and demolition of legacy facilities. Motorola is the only authorized vendor because the equipment, valued at over $50K, has proprietary administrative configurations accessible only by certified Motorola employees. Its warranty and sustainment are also covered solely by Motorola. Efforts to obtain competition were unsuccessful as no third-party vendors or non-Motorola personnel are certified to access or maintain this equipment. The contracting officer determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that only a single source is reasonably available for this contract action.
