The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers St. Paul District intends to award a sole source contract to TSE International, Inc. of Shreveport, LA, for the purchase of Tow Haulage Modular Subassemblies designed as direct replacements for existing Timberland Equipment Ltd. systems installed at locks used for commercial navigation between 2001 and 2005. The required components include two Hydraulic Tow Haulage Winches GP120-1-60EH, two Hydraulic Power Units HPU-1x60EM, and a Tow Haul Winch Control System comprising two control stations and an HPU Starter Panel, with an option to acquire a third set. These modules are commercial products customized to meet strict compatibility requirements with proprietary Timberland systems, ensuring seamless integration and continued technical support. Delivery is required within 32 weeks of award to the Lock and Dam No. 5A Warehouse in Fountain City, WI, where the subassemblies will be stored and deployed by Equipment Repair technicians to rapidly replace failed units at any lock in the district, enabling repairs to be completed within eight hours including transit time. The government asserts that TSE International, Inc. is the only domestic small business capable of supplying these subassemblies, and that no other manufacturer can produce compatible parts due to Timberland Equipment Ltd.’s proprietary engineering and exclusive distribution rights outside the United States. Installing components from any other source would result in loss of critical technical support and endanger system integrity, performance, and safety. This action is authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and implemented by RFO 6.103-1, permitting sole source procurement under the justification that only one source can meet the government’s needs. The solicitation will be issued under RFQ W912ES26QA087, and any interested party wishing to challenge the exclusivity claim must submit written objections to John Riederer at John.P.Riederer@usace.army.mil no later than 11:00 AM CDT on July 30, 2026. A formal justification for other than full and open competition will be published upon contract award, though the final contract number and dollar value remain undetermined.

Full Description

This is a SPECIAL NOTICE of the Government?s intent to solicit and award a sole source contract. This is NOT a request for quotes (RFQ), invitation for bids (IFB) or request for proposals (RFP). The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ? St. Paul District, in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented by RFO (Revolutionary FAR Overhaul) 6.103-1, intends to solicit a contract for Tow Haulage Modular Subassemblies, manufactured by Timberland Equipment Ltd. from a single source, TSE International, Inc. of Shreveport, LA. The modular subassemblies are direct replacement parts for existing Timberland Equipment Ltd. systems, in use since 2001-2005 at the St. Paul District locks used for commercial navigation. The modules must be fully compatible with existing equipment, manufactured by Timberland Equipment Ltd. between 2001 and 2005. The acquisition consists of two each (with option for a third) of the following subsystem modules: ? Hydraulic Tow Haulage Winch ? GP120-1-60EH ? Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) ? HPU-1x60EM ? Tow Haul Winch Control System ? consists of two (2) control stations and HPU Starter Panel. The supplies required are commercial products, customized to Government specifications. They will be delivered within 32 weeks of the contract award date to: Lock and Dam No. 5A Warehouse, W679 State Hwy 35, Fountain City, WI 54629-7214. The tow haul systems are used by lock operators to pull clusters (sticks) of commercial unpowered barges headed upstream out of the lock chambers using a wire rope that is temporarily connected to the barges. It is believed by the Government that TSE International, Inc. is the only domestic small business able to supply the required equipment. Timberland Equipment Ltd. winch systems are produced and normally distributed exclusively by Timberland Equipment Ltd., a Canadian firm, based in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. The tow haul winch systems are engineered with proprietary data. If the Government were to install subassemblies produced by a firm other than Timberland Equipment Ltd. it would lose technical support for the integrated system. The subassemblies being acquired will be used by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Equipment Repair (ER) technicians to remediate equipment failures by swapping a subassembly for the malfunctioning equipment, and then repairing/rebuilding the faulty assembly. The procurement allows the Government to maintain an inventory of fully functional subassemblies at a central warehouse, allowing a team of ER technicians to travel to any lock in the St. Paul District experiencing equipment failure and swap out the faulty equipment within eight hours, including loading and drive times. If any interested parties wish to dispute the Government?s assertions that TSE International, Inc. is the only domestic small business able to supply the required equipment subassemblies, and that only Timberland Equipment Ltd. products are able to fulfill the requirements, they are requested to contact John Riederer, Contract Specialist at John.P.Riederer@usace.army.mil so that the email is received no later than 11:00 AM (CDT) on July 30, 2026. A written Justification for Other than Full and Open competition will be posted with the Contract Award Announcement. The requirement will be solicited under RFQ W912ES26QA087. The contract number and exact award amount have not yet been determined.

The supplier must also certify it is not debarred, suspended, or delinquent on federal debts, and must adhere to conflict of interest disclosure requirements. The evaluation process for award considers compliance with certifications (including ALI and ISO 9001), financial stability, market presence, legal compliance, proposal completeness, and product quality including warranty terms, though no formal weights or ratings are provided; the approach appears to be a best value trade-off rather than lowest price technically acceptable. Pricing is structured through volume-based discount tiers off MSRP—20% for line-powered mobile column lifts, 15% for wireless/cable battery-powered units, and 17% for other products—with additional discounts for purchases exceeding $500,000.
