Demonstration that the Contractor’s Unique Qualifications or Nature of the Acquisition Requires the Use of the Authority Cited Above (applicability of authority):
The four systems by Johnson Controls including the temperature controls system, the security system, the fire alarm system, and the intrusion alarm are each a major system and a highly specialized system for the facility that has a huge effect on patient care in the facility. This includes the comfort of the patients and staff, security for the patients and staff, and safety if there natural disaster or fire in the facility. All four of the Johnson Controls Incorporated systems are highly specialized as they include manufacturer propriety programs that will not seamlessly communicate with other manufacturers equipment. Overall these four systems need to seamlessly communicate with the existing main building automation system server, main fire control panel, and main security server, including the software and hardware for intrusion alarm. If the four new systems do not integrate seamlessly patients and the facility will be put at risk. Since other manufactures would not be able to seamlessly integrate into the existing three Johnson Controls Incorporated systems this would require an entirely new main building automation server, main fire control panel, and main security server. In addition to new main building automation server, main fire control panel, and main security server all the existing hardware and software all the way down to individual sensors or alarms would need to be replaced for the entire campus, which would have substantial duplication cost for the facility and require a substantial amount of currently working equipment and sensors to be discarded.
