Description
The U.S. Air Force 502d Contracting Squadron is issuing a sole‑source order to Data Security, Inc. for one SSMD‑2mm Solid State Media Disintegrator to be installed at Building 817, JBSA‑Lackland, Texas. The device must meet NSA/CSS 9‑12 security standards, operate on a standard 220‑240 V, 1‑phase, 6 A outlet, and fit within tight space and mobility constraints. No competing product satisfies these combined electrical, security, and footprint requirements, and alternative solutions would incur >$15,000 in facility upgrades. The contract will be placed through GSA Advantage and includes delivery, equipment, tools, and shipping.
