Quick Summary
The Regional Contracting Office (RCO) Wiesbaden has issued a Justification for Other Than Full Open Competition to increase the contract award ceiling for Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract W912CM22D0002. This action is for the sole-source procurement of Maintenance, Inspection, Testing, and Repair (M&R) of fire alarm and detection systems at USAG Wiesbaden, Germany, awarded to Gama Tronik Brandschutzsysteme GmbH.
Purpose & Context
This justification ensures the continuity of critical life-safety services for fire alarm and detection systems at USAG Wiesbaden. The sole-source action is necessary due to the cancellation of a previous competitive solicitation (W912CM26QA016) caused by an inadvertent disclosure of historical pricing data. The government is actively developing a long-term, competitive Germany-wide Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) for future requirements. Failure to approve this modification would pose unacceptable risks, including life-safety violations and potential loss of life or property.
Scope of Work
The services include comprehensive M&R of fire alarm and detection systems. Tasks involve functional testing, battery load testing, 5-year component replacement, smoke detector sensitivity testing, and voice alarm system verification. All services must comply with U.S. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 72 standards, German Institute for Standardization (DIN) norms (including DIN 14675, DIN 31051/14677, DIN 14406, DIN 14676), and other relevant regulations.
Contract Details
- Contract Type: Modification to existing IDIQ contract W912CM-22-D-0002
- Product/Service Code: J012 (Maintenance, Repair And Rebuilding Of Equipment: Fire Control Equipment)
- Estimated New Task Order Value: $1,000,000.00

- Sole Source Contractor: Gama Tronik Brandschutzsysteme GmbH
- Period of Performance (New Task Order): May 30, 2026, to May 29, 2027
- Place of Performance: Wiesbaden, Germany
Eligibility / Set-Aside
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition, not a solicitation. The action is justified as a sole-source procurement due to the immediate need for essential life-safety services and limited time following a pre-award protest. A Notice of Intent to Sole Source will be published on SAM.gov, and capability statements received will be considered.
