Intent to Sole Source, Automated Fee Machine Subscription Services, Beaver Project Office

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Little Rock District intends to award a sole-source, Firm-Fixed Price Purchase Order to Caracal Enterprises, LLC dba VenTek International for automated fee machine subscription services at the Beaver Project Office in Rogers, Arkansas. The contract involves providing software-based services for 20 automated fee machines and a venmobile station, which are essential for collecting, reporting, and transmitting park user fees to the U.S. Treasury. Although the government owns the physical machines and the first year of maintenance services, VenTek International retains proprietary rights to the software that enables these functions, making it the only viable provider capable of delivering the required services under current conditions. This action is authorized under FAR 12.102(a) as a non-personal services procurement and does not require competitive bidding. Interested parties may still submit a capability statement or quotation via email to brandee.m.wright@usace.army.mil by 12:00 PM CDT on July 2, 2026, though such submissions will only be considered to evaluate whether future competition is warranted. The solicitation number is W9127S26PA068, with the NAICS code 334514, and the procurement is classified as a presolicitation with no set-aside designation. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Brandee M. Wright, and the purchase order will be performed at Rogers, Arkansas, while the issuing office is located in Little Rock, Arkansas. Submissions are strictly limited to the stated deadline and must be delivered electronically to the provided email address.
