Quick Summary
The Department of the Air Force's 502d Contracting Squadron (CONS) has issued a modification and justification for a sole-source bridge contract for Fire Suppression Maintenance Systems Services at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston (JBSA-FSH), TX. This action prevents a break in essential services and has been awarded non-competitively to the incumbent contractor, Accentz, Inc.
Scope of Work
The contractor is responsible for providing all necessary tools, materials, equipment, and personnel for the inspection, testing, recharging, maintenance, and repair of fire suppression systems. Services ensure the continued serviceability and prevent deterioration of these critical systems. The contractor must be licensed by the State of Texas.
Contract & Timeline
- Type: Sole-Source Bridge Contract Modification (Justification)
- Set-Aside: 8(a) Sole Source (FAR 19.8)
- Incumbent Contractor: Accentz, Inc. (CAGE: 6G3R3)
- Period of Performance: October 1, 2025, to March 31, 2026
- Published Date: January 27, 2026
Justification for Sole Source
This bridge contract is necessary due to delays in finalizing a follow-on small business set-aside contract, ensuring uninterrupted service. Extensive market research was conducted, including outreach to 8(a) contractors and collaboration with the SBA. However, negotiations for a competitive award failed due to pricing and subcontracting concerns. A Notice of Intent for this sole-source bridge to Accentz, Inc. was posted, but no responses were received. The Contracting Officer determined that only a single source is reasonably available, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
Future Actions
The 502d CONS plans to conduct additional market research for future acquisitions to ensure maximum competition for these services.
Submission Impact
This notice is a justification for an existing sole-source award and is not a solicitation for competitive quotes or proposals.
