55--Notice of Intent To Award

The National Park Service San Francisco Major Activity Buying Office plans to award a sole source contract to Alamo Hardwoods Inc. for the supply of specialty lumber and milled specifications needed to rebuild and replace wooden components of the historic 1790s grist mill at the San Antonio Missions. This procurement will be conducted under an existing Blanket Purchase Agreement established for three years, with the government intending to negotiate exclusively with Alamo Hardwoods under FAR 6.302-1 authority. Although other interested parties may express interest or submit proposals within five days of the notice's publication, this announcement is not a solicitation for competitive bids but a determination notice to gauge whether competition is necessary. The contract aligns with NAICS code 321918 and is managed by the Department of the Interior’s Dsc Contracting Services Division based in Denver, Colorado. Any responses received will solely inform the government's decision whether to proceed with or bypass a competitive procurement process. The overall action aims to preserve and maintain the historic structure using specialized materials, ensuring consistency with the site's historical significance while leveraging an established purchasing agreement to streamline acquisition.
