N--Installation of Fire Monitoring System

The 177th Fighter Wing is seeking to award a sole source contract to Great Valley Systems Corp., operating as N B Barber, for the installation of a fire monitoring system at the FAA Technical Center property in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey. N B Barber is the authorized provider for fire suppression and fire alarm services at this site, where the 177th Fighter Wing is a tenant. The procurement is justified under federal regulations that allow for non-competitive contracting when there is only one responsible source, as the FAA Technical Center mandates the use of N B Barber for such installations on its properties. This contract opportunity was publicly announced with a deadline for qualified vendors to respond by 10 a.m. Eastern Time on July 3, 2014, although the government holds discretion over whether to proceed with competition based on responses received. Interested parties were instructed to submit their responses via email, with no telephone inquiries accepted. The solicitation is associated with NAICS code 561621, pertaining to security systems services, and falls under the Department of Defense’s 177th Fighter Wing office located in Egg Harbor Township, NJ.
