- Description
- This is a Notice of Intent to award a sole source purchase order for the purchase of a controlled impact rescue tool. This procurement is to be completed with Raytheon UTD. The CIRT breaching tool is a powder actuated device that affords urban search and rescue teams breaching capabilities not currently available using standard equipment. CIRT uses a specially designed impactor head that applies a concentrated shock load into a reinforced concrete structure. Multiple impacts produce substantial localized damage allowing for faster breaching. Fifteen to twenty impacts are typically needed to create an 18" opening on a 5.5 inch thick reinforced concrete wall. Delivery of this equipment will be made to Herndon, VA 20171. The above named vendor is believed to be the only source who can provide the type of customized equipment required by the Government. This notice of intent is NOT a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for competitive quotes. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and product qualifications via e-mail to Marcelle Loveday no later than 11:00 AM, EST, Monday, 9/20/10. Email address: Marcelle.loveday@associates.dhs.gov. Capabilities/product qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination not to compete this proposed procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
