Notice of Intent to Sole Source purchase in accordance with FAR Part 12 and 13.

The NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville plans to award a sole source contract to Bouldin and Lawson to procure one Ordnance Deformer for the NCBC Gulfport Qualified Recycling Program. This equipment is essential for the disposal and recycling of small arms brass casings collected by tenant commands. The contract will be executed in accordance with FAR Parts 12 and 13, specifically under the authority allowing non-competitive negotiations with a single source due to market research indicating that only Bouldin and Lawson can meet the government’s minimum technical specifications for the Ordnance Deformer. The critical features required include a diesel engine, the ability to process casings ranging from 9mm to 50mm calibers, trailer mounting, and an emergency cut-off switch. This sole source acquisition is classified under NAICS code 333922 with a business size standard of 500 employees. The government's decision to bypass competitive bids aligns with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), emphasizing the specialized nature of the equipment and the vendor’s unique capabilities. The contract’s point of contact is Tracie Griner of NAVSUP FLC Jacksonville, who can provide additional information regarding this procurement. This is an official notice of intent, not a solicitation for competing proposals.
