Operations, Maintenance and Vertical Transportation Equipment Services located in Hilo and Honolulu, HI under Sole Source Authority 538.7104-3 Federal Supply Schedule Sole Source Justification

The General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, through its Facility Management Contracting Division – West, has issued a sole-source justification under GSAM 538.7104-3(b)(i) for an emergency procurement of Operations and Maintenance and Vertical Transportation Equipment Services to ensure uninterrupted operations at four federal facilities in Hawaii: the PJKK Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse, Fort Armstrong Parking Lot, Hilo Federal Building and U.S. Post Office, and the U.S. Customs Warehouse. This action follows the failure of a prior contractor, creating an urgent need to prevent service disruption, and is being executed through a Bridge Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) numbered 47PG5226A0008 awarded to Pundir Group Inc. The contract is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price arrangement with a base performance period from May 1, 2026, to April 30, 2027, and includes an option for a six-month extension under FAR 52.217-8 to bridge the gap until a new competitive contract is awarded. The scope encompasses all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision necessary to maintain and repair critical building systems including condenser pumps, cooling towers, server room units, domestic water systems, chiller units, backflow prevention, and storm drains, ensuring compliance with GSA’s Zone 7 facility standards. All personnel must hold HSPD-12 clearance to access federal facilities immediately upon award, and the contractor is expected to transition seamlessly into service with no ramp-up period, relying on existing institutional knowledge of the Hawaii sites. The estimated contract value is $3,138,168 for the initial 12-month period, with no detailed CLIN or SLIN pricing provided. The contracting officer is Amal Budul, based out of GSA’s office in Washington, DC. Inspection and acceptance will occur on-site at the facilities in Honolulu and Hilo, and while specific packaging, marking, or preservation requirements are not specified, the procurement is governed by Federal Supply Schedule policies and prior BPA terms. No evaluation factors, socioeconomic certifications, or detailed representations from the offeror are included in the documentation, as this is a non-competitive, emergency action under sole-source authority.
