This project may include a Brand Name only component, as described below, unless the results of this sources sought notification indicates otherwise. This notification serves three purposes: (1) to notify potential Offerors of the Government's intent to solicit a brand name only component under a future construction project; (2) to identify potential sources that can provide the brand name only item and/or equivalent; (3) notification of the Army's intent to contract sole source for a Brand Name Only, if the market is unable to provide 'equivalent' products. In the event no equivalent equipment exists, the Brand Name Only justification will be issued pursuant to FAR 6.302-1. A subsequent market survey will not be published in support of a Justification and Approval (J&A) for sole sourcing the resultant product(s) or system(s) in the event an equivalent product is not submitted for consideration. In such instances, the brand name or equal component will be embedded in the construction project. Only that part of the project requiring brand name components will be sole sourced if no sources are able to prove an equal product. SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENT: The construction project will include Brand Name only equipment as follows: SIGCOM DTX Fire Alarm Radio Transmitter: LEAD (Letterkenny Army Depot) currently has a SIGCOM Fire Alarm Receiving Station. The transmitter is required to ensure all facilities on LEAD are able to receive and decode fire alarm signals from the central receiving station operated by the Letterkenny Fire Department. For this reason, a compatible radio transmitter and its associated antenna and appurtenances shall be specified under this project. The use of any other manufacturer would result in the inability to send fire alarm signals to the Letterkenny Fire Department. Federal Signal Mass Notification Receiver: The new facilities to be constructed are required by Code (NFPA 72, UFC 4-010-01, and UFC 4-021-01) to include a mass notification system capable of alerting occupants to various non-fire emergencies and instructing them on what they should do. For the facility s mass notification system to communicate with the existing signal receiving equipment, a radio receiver that is also manufactured by Federal Signal must be provided due to the proprietary use of the communications protocol. Interested vendors must show clear and convincing evidence that alternatives to the specified items exist. Interested vendors wishing to be considered by the Government as described above must provide a copy of its brochure and any other capability statements/ data no later than 19 December 2025, 11:00 AM EST, to Contract Specialist, Lauren Elamenuel, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District, Contracting Division, via email to lauren.n.elamenuel@usace.army.mil.
