The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to A & A Sheet Metal Products (SECURALL) for the acquisition of one pre-fabricated Agri-Chemical storage container to be delivered and offloaded onto an existing concrete pad at the Mark Twain National Forest’s Salem Ranger District in Missouri. The structure is specifically designed for the secure storage of US Forest Service tracer paint and is the only unit that meets the technical and safety requirements of the site. SECURALL is the sole original equipment manufacturer of this industrial unit, and no other vendor can provide a structurally compatible solution due to the foundation being custom-engineered and poured to SECURALL’s exact specifications, making replacement with another manufacturer impractical without costly demolition, structural modifications, or a complete re-pour of the pad. The storage container features a heavy-gauge galvannealed double-wall steel construction capable of withstanding winds up to 250 mph and includes a built-in 12-gauge, liquid-tight, continuously welded steel sump flooring system for secondary spill containment, ensuring compliance with EPA and OSHA safety standards. The necessity for sole sourcing is justified by the need to avoid significant financial duplication, operational delays, and safety risks associated with altering the existing infrastructure. While this notice does not solicit competitive bids, interested parties may submit capability statements to the Contracting Officer by July 31, 2026, though the government retains full discretion to determine whether to proceed without competition. The contract is being managed by CSA East 6 USDA Forest Service out of Atlanta, Georgia, with primary point of contact Jordan Wheelock.

Full Description

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service, Procurement Operations (PROPS), East Zone, CSA East 6, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to A & A Sheet Metal Products (SECURALL) under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b).


Requirement: Acquisition of one (1) pre-fabricated Agri-Chemical storage container to be delivered and offloaded to a pre-existing concrete pad at the Mark Twain National Forest, Salem Ranger District. The structure will be utilized for the safe storage of US Forest Service tracer paint.


Justification Details: SECURALL is the Sole Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of this industrial unit. Sourcing from alternative providers is restricted due to technical and structural constraints:


  • Foundation Match: The existing concrete pad at the Salem RD compound was engineered, poured, and set to the exact structural layout specifications provided by SECURALL.
  • Cost & Delay Avoidance: Sourcing a different manufacturer would require physical demolition, structural modifications, or a complete re-pouring of the foundation pad, causing a substantial duplication of government costs and severe operational delays.
  • Safety & Compliance: The unit features a unique, heavy-gauge galvannealed double-wall steel system capable of withstanding winds up to 250 mph and includes a built-in 12-gauge liquid-tight continuously welded steel sump flooring system for secondary spill containment. This exact model satisfies specific EPA and OSHA-approved safety criteria required on-site.

This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. However, interested parties may submit a capability statement to the Contracting Officer within the posting period to be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
