The U.S. Army’s Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Gordon, Georgia, is proceeding with a sole-source award to UNICOM GOVERNMENT, INC. for audiovisual maintenance services under the NAICS code 334111, authorized by 10 USC 2304(c)(1) due to the absence of other responsible sources. This acquisition is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures per FAR Part 13 and Commercial Item Procedures under FAR Part 12, with no competitive solicitation issued. Interested parties must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government by 2:00 PM on May 18, 2024, or the award will proceed without further notice, and all responses must be submitted in writing—oral communications are not permitted. The contract covers annual preventive maintenance and repairs for Spectra Analysis instruments at the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Laboratory, including equipment relocation, AV system upgrades in multiple rooms, 12x7 technical support, next-day part replacement via RMA, and annual reporting of labor and costs through SAM.gov. Performance is measured at a 95% compliance threshold, subject to 100% surveillance by the Contracting Officer’s Representative, and must adhere to ASCLD-LAB/ISO, OSHA, NIST, and manufacturer specifications, as well as Army regulations including AR 530-1 (OPSEC) and AR 381-12. All personnel must be Spectra Analysis-certified, complete mandatory training in TARP, OPSEC, iWATCH, and AT Level I Awareness within prescribed timelines, pass NCIC-III and Terrorist Screening Database checks, and comply with PIV requirements. The base period runs from July 27, 2026, to July 26, 2027, with two one-year options extending the potential contract duration to three years. While the place of performance is clearly designated as Fort Gordon, Georgia, no pricing details, CLIN structures, payment offices, or contract value estimates are provided, and neither packaging, marking, nor preservation requirements are specified. Key personnel are not designated, and no organizational conflict of interest provisions apply. The Contracting Officer’s Representative will be formally appointed after award and has no authority to modify terms or obligations. No formal representations, certifications, socioeconomic status disclosures, or evaluation factors with weighting are included, and the award is contingent on the government’s sole discretion.
