Heat Plant Boiler and Pump Repair

Solicitation FA462626C0003 is a firm-fixed-price construction contract for the repair of a degraded boiler and High-Temperature Hot Water (HTHW) system at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. The project, estimated at 630,000 dollars, is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238220. The scope of work requires the contractor to provide all diagnostics, testing, labor, materials, and equipment necessary to restore full operational capability to the heating systems and prevent catastrophic failure. Key deliverables include updated as-built drawings, detailed maintenance and repair logs, diagnostic procedures, and a final system condition report. The contract is being awarded on a sole-source basis to Mid Mountain Boiler & Steam, Inc. under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This determination is based on the contractor's unique institutional knowledge and irreplaceable technical expertise, having been involved in 90 percent of prior maintenance and operations for these specific legacy systems. The government has determined that no other qualified sources exist within the Northern Rockies region and that transitioning to a new contractor would pose an unacceptable risk of service disruption. Price reasonableness is being verified through cost analysis and comparison with historical data from previous contracts.
