CJIS - Yuma Carpet Tiles

This procurement action involves the sole-source acquisition of 1,600 square yards of proprietary Yuma-Custom carpet tile, Style 59387, in a specific 24” x 24” size and 22 oz. weight, required for installation in the FBI’s CJIS Division Main Building in Clarksburg, West Virginia. The carpet must match the existing flooring exactly in color, texture, and configuration to ensure safety by preventing tripping hazards and maintaining structural integrity during repeated removal and reinstallation for underfloor utility access. Only Continental Flooring Company can meet these specifications due to its proprietary formula and original involvement in supplying the carpet for the facility, making competition impracticable under FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(B). The estimated contract value is $64,788.24, covering both the carpet and associated adhesive and custom color matching costs, and the procurement will be conducted as a firm fixed-price contract. The FBI has determined that no other vendor can replicate the exact product due to technical uniqueness, and market research supports the cost as fair and reasonable, with no formal competitive process anticipated. Responses to this notice of intent are not requests for proposals; they must provide clear and convincing evidence that full competition would benefit the government, and any submission will not be compensated. All inquiries and responses must be emailed to Candice Kesselman and Treyton Miller at the FBI by 12:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, May 13, 2026. The carpet must retain its dimensional stability, be reinstallable without distortion, come with a lifetime commercial warranty, and comply with specifications including eco solution q nylon fiber, solution-dyed construction, Ecoworx backing, and SSP Shaw Soil Protection. Neither the offeror nor the agency has provided information on payment offices, accounting codes, invoicing systems, or formal evaluation criteria, and no socioeconomic or size certifications are referenced. The contracting office is located in Washington, D.C., with performance taking place in Clarksburg, West Virginia.
