RECOVERY--Y--Repair Substaion and Switchgear, Fac 2143

The US Army Corps of Engineers, Sacramento District, plans to negotiate a sole source contract with TEPA EC LLC for the repair of the substation and switchgear at Building 2143, Beale Air Force Base, California. The contract, valued between $1 million and $5 million, falls under NAICS code 237130 and involves specialized electrical work. This acquisition will be awarded without competition, justified by a statutory exception under FAR 6.302-5(b)(4), which allows sole source awards through the 8(a) program, specifically due to the SBA’s set-aside for a concern owned by an Indian tribe. The decision reflects a determination that the government’s minimum needs are best met by contracting directly with TEPA EC LLC, with no requirement for a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for this procurement. The contracting activity is located at 1325 J Street, Sacramento, CA, with the Department of Defense overseeing the process through the W075 Endist Sacramento office. The contracting officer or point of contact for this action is Nikole VR May, who can be reached via email or phone. This targeted procurement approach ensures timely and efficient repair work using a contractor deemed uniquely qualified under existing federal statutes to fulfill the government’s needs on this electrical systems project at the military installation.
