Only that part of the project requiring the Nederman system will be sole source if no sources are able to provide a compatible system. In the event no compatible equipment exists, the Brand Name Only justification will be issued pursuant to FAR 6.3, Only One Responsible Source. This Notice of intent is for planning purposes and is not a solicitation. This Notice of intent is the only document that will be published notifying potential offerors of the governments intent.

The exhaust fan and associated system must be capable of receiving radio frequency from the emergency vehicles at an FCC approved frequency of LLB4712. The FCC approved transmitter frequency shall serve to act as a remote control for the fan start up to ensure that the exhaust system is always running whenever the emergency vehicle is in operation. This Notice of intent requests that any vendor wishing to provide information on a system that is compatible with the Nederman nozzle affixed to the rescue vehicles should provide a copy of its brochure and any other pertinent technical data. Responses should include: (1) A technical description on the vendors vertical hose having the capacity to achieve a 100% exhaust extraction from the vehicle nozzle.
