- Description
- The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Walla Walla District, is issuing this special notice to inform industry of the intent to solicit and negotiate solely with B&B Roadway & Security Solutions, LLC, for the purchase of four (4) VW-4 Vertical Warning Gates to be installed at Little Goose Lock and Dam. A determination not to compete this proposed contract has been made Pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), Soliciting from a Single Source. 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. The determination not to compete was also made pursuant to 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(2) as implemented by FAR 6.302-2(a)(2) - Unusual and compelling urgency. Any navigation lock delays will cause impacts to waterborne transportation, resulting in significant impacts to the supply change and delivery commitments for stakeholders including growers (wheat, potatoes, peas, and lentils), manufacturers, shippers, paper product manufacturers, inland ports, tow boaters, cruise and recreational boats, and international grain customers. USACE is congressionally authorized to maintain navigation of waterways. USACE has determined that any further outages of the current Warning Gate will result in no waterborne transportation for an indefinite time. Delays will impact the passage of cargo through the Lower Snake River navigations locks which would impact a $1.5 billion industry. Therefore, this requirement is considered urgent and compelling. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 332999, All Other Misc. Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing, for this Small Business Set-Aside Award. This notice of intent is not a formal solicitation or request for competitive proposals. No solicitation document is available and telephone requests will not be honored. No award will be made on the basis of quotations or offers received in response to this notice. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities no later than 05:00 PM Pacific Time on 17 September 2018. Faxed and e-mailed statements are acceptable, but the senders bear full responsibility to ensure complete transmission and timely receipt. All inquiries and concerns must be addressed, in writing, by e-mail to Chandra D. Crow at chandra.d.crow@usace.army.mil. Any response to this notice must show clear, compelling and convincing evidence that competition will be advantageous to the Government. The intent of this synopsis is for informational purposes only. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement for future requirements. A determination by the Government not to compete this action based on this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Contracting Office Address: USACE District, Walla Walla, 201 N. Third Avenue, Walla Walla, WA 99362-1876 Point of Contact(s): Chandra D. Crow; 509-527-7202
