This procurement action is for the purchase of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) spare parts for the OPTINOTA-H Press Equipment used by BEP for currency manufacturing. All parts listed in the attached Parts List are manufactured and are proprietary to Koenig & Bauer (K&B). There are no sources that are capable of supplying all these OEM spare parts other than K&B. BEP does not possess the required capabilities in terms of labor, machinery or materials to produce these items. Therefore, the Government has determined the need to search for outside sources to procure these items. A Notice (Sources Sought) was posted in www.SAM.gov on 12 August 2022 under RFI 2031ZA22N00036 and closed on 19 August 2022 as a means of conducting market research to identify parties having interest and the resources to support this highly specialized equipment used by BEP for currency manufacturing. As of the notice�s closing date, only one response was received which provided an acceptable capability statement. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) intends to sole-source and award this contract to K&B. The applicable North American Classification Code (NAICS) is 333244, Printing Machinery and Equipment. � This Notice of Intent is not�a request for competitive quotes.� If you feel your firm can provide all the spare parts in the attached list, please submit a capability statement by 12:00PM EST, 26 August 2022.� The decision not to compete this requirement is within the discretion of the Government.� Any response to this notice must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government.� The Government may consider all capability statements received for future requirement.� POC is Ramon Ramos, Contract Specialist, ramon.ramos@bep.gov.
