This solicitation, DMA-SS-27-002, seeks OPCON Training Solutions equipment and services from a single source under Florida Statutes 120.57(3) and 287.057(3), with justification based on the proprietary and integrated nature of the existing simulation system at Camp Blanding Joint Training Center in Starke, Florida. The contract requires delivery and integration of specialized training devices including Explosive Blast Simulators, Powder Containment Shells, Smoke Effects Devices with Wireless Initiators, and the SIM-AED Audio Effects Remote System, all of which must be fully compatible with current OPCON infrastructure to maintain operational continuity and training realism. The period of performance runs from August 27, 2026, through June 30, 2027, with an estimated contract value of $150,000. No competitive evaluation process is involved; award is driven solely by the necessity of source due to technical uniqueness and legacy system interoperability. All submissions must be received by August 26, 2026, and the primary point of contact for all correspondence is Jennifer Adams of the Florida Department of Military Affairs, reachable via phone or email. While the solicitation references an essential attachment, PUR7776, for detailed specifications, no formal clause structure, pricing line items, packaging standards, inspection criteria, or contractor certifications are provided in the available documentation. There are no stated option periods, security clearance requirements, key personnel designations, or formal invoicing instructions. Contract administration responsibilities fall under the Department of Military Affairs, with Jennifer Adams serving as the primary liaison, though no official Contracting Officer Representative or Contracting Officer is formally identified. The acquisition adheres strictly to state procurement rules and does not invoke standard federal FAR clauses or alternate provisions, reflecting a state-level sole-source process focused on technical necessity rather than competitive bidding.
