Requiring Activity: 60 CS; Mr. Kirby 2. Contracting Agency: 60th Contracting Squadron, Travis AFB CA 3. Purchase Request #: F3Z3517238AC02 4. Description of Requirement: 20 Motorola XTS?4000 Land Mobile Radios and necessary hardware and software required for them to be compatible with the Travis AFB Trunked Land Mobile Radio (TLMR) System. 5. Statutory Authority permitting other than full and open competition: Section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, as implemented by: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement. 6. Justification or authority for action: (a.) Currently, Motorola, Inc. is the only manufacturer of radio equipment in this small form factor similar to a flip phone. The 60th AMW?s Senior Leadership requires radios ass small as possible to reduce the overall size of the communication tools hey carry. (b.) Motorola, Inc. is the only known brand that can satisfy the Government?s requirement for compatibility with the existing system on base. 60 AMW needs encrypted LMR systems, consisting of the proposed Motorola equipment list, to be programmed by Motorola so it is compatible with the existing base trunking system valued at 7 million dollars. (c.) Without these radios, 60 AMW Senior Leadership personnel would not be able to access the base trunking system and communicate with their work control centers, each other, and the rest of the base necessary to perform the mission. 7. Market Research/ Other Facts: The only other manufacturer of radios capable of operating on the TLMR system are manufactured by EF Johnson however they are larger and bulkier and not meeting the requirement to be as small as possible. These companies were contacted for a Motorola?s brand radio quote: ACG Tech Deborah Ross 410-224-8668 Ewing Electronics Ryan Hawley 800-394-6496 Motorola Joe Maduri 916-966-6611 8. Brand Name: Motorola, Inc. 9. Steps to improve competition: Market research will continue to be conducted. Until such time that other vendors produce equipment meeting NSA?s policy guidance, Motorola, Inc. will remain the brand name provider. 10. Certification: I hereby certify that this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. CUSTOMER SIGNATURE BLOCK: /////////////SIGNED/////////////// JAMES P.
