## Description

In accordance with FAR Subpart 13.5 Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items, NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk, Mechanicsburg Office intends to award a Sole Source Firm Fixed Price contract to Mandex, Inc. for the procurement of maintenance services for the integrated electronic security system (IESS) \ physical access systems (PACS) for the IM\IT Department at Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory (NSMRL) in Groton, Connecticut.

The justification for this action being sole source is that Mandex, Inc. installed the security system equipment throughout the laboratory at NSMRL and is the only qualified vendor to service the equipment due to the applicable patent, copyright, and proprietary data limit requirements for the services and/or products. There are no commercial components compatible with Madex's system.

This notice of intent is not a request for proposals or quotations; however, any challenges to this sole source must be received in writing and sent to jessica.a.thompson58.civ@us.navy.mil to be considered by the Government for the purpose of determining whether or not to compete the requirement. Challenges must include information sufficient to enable the Government to make a determination that an equivalent service exists which would meet the Government's needs as stated herein. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
