- Description
- Justification for other than full and open competition (Simplified Acquisition) The US Forest Service, Chugach National Forest, intends to solicit and negotiate a sole source, firm fixed price purchase order, as authorized by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 (13.106-1(b)(1)(i)), with Northern Pioneer Helicopters LLC, Big Lake, Alaska. Requirement is for all necessary equipment, personnel, incidentals, supplies and supervision required to transport and place four (4) communication shelters, as prescribed, from Forest Service staging area to established sites on mountain tops. The contractor is responsible for providing equipment capable of lifting and transporting the shelters as well as providing personnel required to place and orient the shelters at the established mountain top sites. The prescribed location, for each shelter, will be indicated by markers or paint showing the exact placement with the shelter facing in a prescribed direction. The reason for a sole source award to the Northern Pioneer Helicopters is because market research has shown that they are the only contractor in the area +/- 700 miles with a helicopter capable of lifting 3,600 lbs. external load with one (1) hour fuel on board. Justification for other than full and open competition - simplified acquisition, is attached. This is not a request for proposal. No package is available for competitive proposals. However, companies that feel they have equipment capable of providing the required service may submit a statement of capability, past performance information, price and delivery time for satisfying this requirement no later than 2 pm, Alaska Time, on 12 July 2013. The applicable NAICS code for this requirement is: 481212. The period of performance is dependent on weather and may occur any time between July and Sep 2013. Point of contact for this requirement is Denise Murphy, Contract Specialist, denisemurphy@fs.fed.us or 907-743-9531.
