AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Army Engineer District in Louisville intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to modernize the elevator in the control tower at Taylorsville Lake, Kentucky, with a performance period of 365 days from notice to proceed. The work involves replacing all critical electrical and mechanical components, including the controller, hoist machine motor, and governor, requiring specialized knowledge of the original system’s unique and now-obsolete design. The decision to proceed without competition is based on the fact that only one contractor installed the original elevator and holds exclusive expertise and access to legacy parts, making other vendors incapable of performing the work safely or efficiently. Past attempts at competitive bidding failed when the 2025 awardee could not complete the task, resulting in termination and delays, further reinforcing the need for the original installer to ensure continued operational safety and avoid costly redesigns. Any responsible sources may submit capability statements or quotes within 15 calendar days of the notice’s publication on June 10, 2026, with a deadline of June 25, 2026, to the Contracting Specialist Marcie Billotto. Although the government may consider submissions, it retains full discretion to proceed noncompetitively if responses do not justify opening the procurement to competition. The solicitation number is W912QR26QA049, the NAICS code is 238290, and the place of performance is Taylorsville, Kentucky, with all correspondence directed to the Louisville office of the Department of Defense.

PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE: INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE-SOURCE CONTRACT
Action: Elevator Modernization at Taylorsville Lake, Taylorsville, Kentucky
1. General Description of the Business Opportunity
The U.S. Army Engineer District (USACE), Louisville, intends to award a firm-fixed-price, sole-source contract for the complete modernization of the elevator located in the control tower at Taylorsville Lake, Taylorsville, Kentucky.
The scope of work includes furnishing all personnel, labor, equipment, supplies, and materials necessary to replace and upgrade the elevator's critical electrical and mechanical components. This includes, but is not limited to, the controller, hoist machine motor, governor, and all related parts. With a period of performance of 365 days from the notice to proceed.
2. Justification for Noncompetitive Action

- Continuity and Safety: The use of any other contractor would require substantial redesign, compromise safety, and result in further unacceptable delays and increased costs to the Government. The elevator is critical for the safe and timely maintenance of essential dam machinery.
