Brand Name Only (BNO) Intercomp Deployable Automated Cargo Measuring System (DACMS)

The Department of the Air Force's 763rd Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (763 ESS) is seeking a Brand Name Only (BNO) Justification and Approval (J&A) to acquire 67 Deployable Automated Cargo Measuring Systems (DACMS) from Intercomp Company. This acquisition, valued at approximately $9.99 million, is critical for enhancing cargo processing and deployment capabilities. DACMS units are essential for seamless integration with existing DoD logistics systems like ICODE, GATES, CMOS, LoGMOD, and TCAIMSII. The brand name justification is due to Intercomp's unique system, which is the only commercially available option with an Authority to Operate (ATO) on DoD networks and proprietary wireless capabilities. Market research confirmed no other system offers comparable integration without significant delays and costs for ATO certification and system development. This acquisition includes a three-year warranty and training for government personnel. The government plans to solicit offers from authorized resellers to ensure fair and reasonable pricing, while also monitoring the market for future competitive solutions.
