59--TX-ARANSAS/MATAGORDA SECRTY SRVR RPLCMT

The contract involves the replacement of a compromised access control server at the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge in Texas under a sole-source award to FISK Electric, justified under FAR Part 13 due to the proprietary and integrated nature of the existing system. The scope includes installing a new DCS 280 Series server, upgrading the RS2 Access It! software to version 12, and integrating HID pivClass authentication licenses and readers with Omnikey USB 5422 card readers to ensure full operational continuity. Due to exclusive licensing and proprietary hardware-software dependencies, no other vendor can deliver a compatible solution, making FISK Electric the only qualified provider based on its role as the original installer and custodian of system-specific configuration data. The acquisition falls under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, with no formal pricing details, contract type, or estimated value specified in the documentation, and all performance activities are constrained to the Texas location where the system resides. The contract does not include standardized FAR Part 52 clauses, packaging or marking requirements, MIL-STD references, or formal inspection criteria beyond system testing and commissioning to confirm compatibility with the proprietary ecosystem. No payment office, invoicing method, accounting codes, or remittance details are provided, and while the contracting office is based in Falls Church, Virginia, no Contracting Officer’s Representative, Technical Representative, or Procuring Contracting Officer contact information is listed beyond the primary point of contact, Solmaz Salih. The offeror, FISK Electric, has not submitted any representations or certifications regarding size status, UEI/CAGE code, or socioeconomic designation, and no evaluation factors or scoring methodology are formally defined—award is predicated solely on the uniqueness of the vendor’s expertise and system compatibility. The procurement relies entirely on administrative justification under FAR 13.106-1, with execution dependent on technical integration success rather than competitive bidding or cost analysis.
