The document outlines a sole source justification for a contract related to a Platinum + 24/7 Plan for preventive maintenance, labor, and discounted parts for the Kardex Remstar Systems' Vertical Lift Modules, managed by the Army Contracting Command - Redstone Arsenal. The contract is proposed for Fiscal Year 2024 and is valued under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.501 as the only authorized dealer, Southwest Solutions Group Inc., provides necessary sales and service for these systems in Texas. An effort to obtain competition through a Request for Information (RFI) yielded no responses, and further market research from February to August 2024 reinforced the lack of alternative vendors. The contract will cover a base year and two optional extension periods, indicating a firm-fixed price framework. The document includes certifications from the contracting and requirements representatives affirming the accuracy and completeness of its information, highlighting the ongoing need for specialized maintenance for this critical storage equipment utilized in aircraft parts management.

The acquisition is set aside for small businesses and includes clauses from the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) relevant to the contract. The award will be based on low price among other factors. Detailed inspection, acceptance terms, and delivery dates from October 3, 2024, to October 2, 2027, are outlined, alongside the necessary representation and certifications related to business size, tax compliance, and operational standards. Emphasis is placed on compliance with various FAR clauses tied to business status, including certifications for veteran-owned and women-owned small businesses.
