Engine Replacement on Texoma Reedrill

The Western Area Power Administration plans to procure a diesel engine replacement for the Texoma Reedrill exclusively from CIA Machinery, Incorporated under a sole source acquisition. This action is authorized by Section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996 and will follow the Federal Acquisition Regulation parts 12 and 13. Although this is not a competitive solicitation, the agency invites capable vendors to submit capability statements within ten days of the notice publication. These statements should demonstrate their ability to meet the government's requirements and will be considered at the government's discretion in deciding whether to proceed without competition. The procurement is categorized under NAICS Code 333618, with a size standard of 1,000 employees. The contract is associated with solicitation number DE-RQ65-12WJ95345, with the place of performance in Casper, Wyoming. Interested parties can direct inquiries to Cansu Teano via email or phone, but no formal solicitation will be posted. This streamlined approach reflects the agency's intent to directly acquire the replacement engine while still allowing qualified suppliers to present their capabilities for consideration.
