- Description
- ERDC Contracting Office intends to Solicit on a Sole Source basis under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) to Applied Test Systems, Inc., 154 Eastbrook Ln, Butler PA 16002-1024. This Procurement is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP)-only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Applied Test Systems, Inc. is the only known source capable of meeting the Government's requirement in procuring the Series 500 Sealant Testing Machine, Model No. 540. Currently the Airfields and Pavements Branch (APB) of the Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL) has been tasked by the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) to establish a Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement joint sealant material certification program. This requires that APB have the necessary laboratory equipment to perform all of the relevant test methods prescribed by specifications for PCC pavement joint sealants. These test methods include ASTM D5329 and Federal Specification SS-S-200e, which require an extension machine for bond testing of PCC pavement joint sealants. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:00 CST on 04 April 2013. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. No Request for Proposal will be issued based upon this Notice of Intent. Interested parties may submit any information for consideration by the Government to Scott.L.Brown@usace.army.mil with solicitation number referenced in the subject line.
