Quick Summary
The 2d Contracting Squadron, Barksdale AFB, has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for updates and additions to the existing Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Access Control System (ACS) at Building 5546, AFGSC Headquarters (HQ), Barksdale AFB. The Air Force intends to award a contract to Prometheus Security Group Global (PSG), doing business as LDIA Holdings, LLC, citing their exclusive capability with the proprietary VICADS system. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration. Responses are due by February 26, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
This special notice outlines the intent to procure necessary updates and additions to the current IDS and ACS infrastructure at Building 5546, AFGSC HQ. The justification for sole-sourcing to PSG is based on the proprietary nature of their VICADS system, critical compatibility requirements with existing infrastructure, and the operational efficiencies gained from a single manufacturer. Any alternative approach is deemed to compromise security, functionality, and incur significant additional costs and risks. The work falls under Product Service Code 6350 (Miscellaneous Alarm, Signal, And Security Detection Systems).
