The United States Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District intends to include the following proprietary items in a solicitation for a construction acquisition under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(c)(1), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This project may include a Brand Name only component, as described below, unless the results of this sources sought notification indicates otherwise. This notification serves three purposes: (1) to notify potential Offerors of the Government's intent to solicit a brand name only component under a future construction project; (2) to identify potential sources that can provide the brand name only item and/or equivalent; (3) notification of the Army's intent to contract sole source for a Brand Name Only, if the market is unable to provide 'equivalent' products. In the event no equivalent equipment exists, the Brand Name Only justification will be issued pursuant to FAR Part 6.302-1(c)(1), "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements". A subsequent market survey will not be published in support of a Justification and Approval (J&A) for sole sourcing the resultant product(s) or system(s) in the event an equivalent product is not submitted for consideration. In such instances, the brand name or equal component will be embedded in the construction project that will be issued/solicited competitively.
