- Description
- The National Forests in Alabama intend to issue a sole source purchase order to IronWolf Manufacturing, LLC of Noble, OK for two-to-four week rental of an IronWolf Rock Crusher with 8-ft wide head mounted on a Cat 950G Wheel Loader, including delivery to and return from Alabama and instruction to the local operators. The purpose of this rental is to provide equipment for a contractor to perform for refurbishment of Forest Service roads on the Talladega National Forest. The equipment must be capable of crushing roadbed rock up to 12 inches below grade. The anticipated value of the order is less than $50,000. Authority for this single source procurement is FAR 13.106(b) for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available. A sources-sought synopsis issued in 2012 did not reveal any firm with comparable equipment reasonably available for work in a nearby state of Georgia. Nor did a subsequent special notice synopsized on May 17, 2013 (AG-435H-S-13-0016) for the same equipment disclose any other sources. This notice is not a request for competitive quotations. No solicitation document is available and telephone requests will not be honored. Any firm that believes it can provide the equipment listed may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination not to compete this proposed order based on responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. All responses shall be e-mailed to Margie Yeaton at myeaton@fs.fed.us no later than Jun 25, 2013, at 4:00pm C
