The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) at the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) intends to negotiate with only one source, Western Shelter, 815 Conger Street, Eugene, OR 97402 for repair and replacement parts for existing Western Shelter brand Modular Tents for use in support of the wildland fire program. This action is authorized by and in accordance with FAR 6.302-1. The Government believes that the only responsible source capable of satisfying the agency's requirement is Western Shelter. A Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition has been prepared in support of this acquisition and is available upon request. The full list of required parts/pieces is also available upon request. The estimated value of this acquisition is less than $465,500.00. No Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be issued and no response will be made to letters or telephone requests for a copy of the solicitation. This is not a request for competitive quotes, but serves as a procurement notice to fulfill public posting requirements in accordance with FAR 5.101(a)(1). The requirement is unrestricted and the NAICS code 314910 applies. Responsible firms believing they can provide the required items are encouraged to identify themselves and give written notification to the Contracting Officer referencing action item 140L3721Q0020. However, they must provide convincing evidence that they can furnish the requested items at a cost that will not exceed the total estimated transaction cost. All responses will be fully considered. If no affirmative responses are received by June 8, 2021 to the effect that a comparable source exists, an order will be placed with Western Shelter for the requirement stated here.
