- Description
- The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), intends to issue a sole source purchase order with Pro-Drive, for the purchase of (3) 25 HP KOH Pro Drive Tiller Boat Motors and crating. This is a sole source justification as Pro-drive is the only shaft driven shallow drive outboard that is built for commercial use. We have reviewed construction designs of similar types of motors and found that none are built heavily enough to withstand the intensive and daily use we subject our equipment to. In addition, the Pro-drive offers full power automatic reverse (unique to this manufacturer) which is an advantage to getting out of the muddy shallow water areas we routinely conduct work in. In addition, the maintenance mechanic has taken training from Pro-drive to completely dismantle and repair these motors so for efficiency sake, we would like to keep all the same motors on our fleet of boats. The proposed contract action is for equipment for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiated with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Simplified procurement procedures will be used as well as commercial item acquisition procedures per FAR 12. For additional information please contact Latisha Hollman at (919) 855-7003 or latisha.a.hollman@aphis.usda.gov.
