Intent to Sole Source - USCG Yard

The United States Coast Guard's Surface Forces Logistics Centers, Contracts & Procurement Branch 2 in Oakland, California, plans to award a sole source contract to Carver Pumps for the procurement of eight feedwater pumps identified by the commodity code 4320-01-561-7957. This procurement supports the Surface Forces Logistics Center's Receiving Room and Warehouse located in Baltimore, Maryland. The action will be conducted under NAICS Code 336611, and no competitive solicitation will be issued as the government intends to negotiate exclusively with Carver Pumps under the authority of FAR 6.302, which allows for sole source procurement based on a single source justification. The announcement serves as a formal notice of intent rather than a request for competitive proposals, and the government reserves full discretion on whether to proceed without competition based on responses to this notice. All inquiries regarding the procurement must be submitted in writing to the designated contracting officer, Alicia M. Hawkins, at the provided email address. The contract involves the direct supplying of the specified pumps to meet operational requirements at the Baltimore facility, with the procurement management located in Alameda, California. This streamlined approach reflects the unique suitability of Carver Pumps as the only source capable of providing the specified equipment.
