Fire Reporting System Upgrade

The 9th Contracting Squadron at Beale AFB, CA intends to award a sole-source contract to Monaco Enterprises, Inc. for the procurement and installation of a system upgrade to the Monaco D-21 Fire Alarm Reporting System. This upgrade is necessary to ensure enhanced system performance, reliability, and compliance with Department of Defense (DoD) cybersecurity requirements. The acquisition will use commercial item procedures under FAR Part 12.

This acquisition is being conducted under the authority of FAR 6.103-1 (Only One Responsible Source). The statutory authority for this sole-source procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). A Class Justification and Approval (J&A) has been approved by the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) to support this sole-source action. In accordance with FAR 6.305, the J&A will be publicly available on SAM.gov within 14 days after the contract award.

Background: The Monaco D-21 Fire Reporting System is critical for life safety as it supports the Base Emergency Dispatch Center by receiving signals from facility alarm systems and enabling the dispatch of Fire and Police personnel. Due to the age of current system components, there is an increased risk of system failure and downtime. The required upgrade to D-21 V2 software will provide a more robust and reliable system, enabling continuous uptime, database archiving, and encrypted radio communications. The upgrade also ensures compliance with DoD cybersecurity requirements.

Scope of Work: Monaco Enterprises, Inc. will provide all necessary services, materials, and equipment to upgrade the D-21 Fire Alarm Reporting System at multiple locations on Beale AFB. This includes:

• Replacing CPUs, servers, and peripheral hardware.


• Upgrading software to D-21 V2 and configuring the system with the existing database.


• Validating system performance, testing, and integration of the upgraded system.


• Providing operator training and project documentation.


• Delivering and installing spare equipment for future maintenance needs.


• The contractor will ensure the new system is fully operational and meets all applicable Federal, State, and local laws and regulations.

Place of Performance: The work will be performed at the following locations:

• Fire Station One, Bldg. 11051


• Security Forces, Bldg. 25470


• Alarm Shop, Comm Bldg. 2159

Sole-Source Justification: This acquisition is being conducted under the authority of FAR 6.103-1 (Only One Responsible Source). Monaco Enterprises, Inc. is the only responsible source capable of meeting the Government’s requirements due to the following:
