Rental and Hauling Surge

The Department of Homeland Security, through the FLETC Glynco Procurement Office, awarded a sole-source contract to Builders Supply Inc. for rental and hauling surge services. This procurement, identified as FLETCRR25, was conducted under FAR 12.102(a) due to urgent mission requirements and strict timeline constraints that rendered Builders Supply Inc. the only reasonably available source. The scope of work involves the immediate removal of construction and debris waste, specifically crushed concrete, rock, and tree limbs, from training facility areas at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Georgia. The award was justified by the vendor's small business status, their existing equipment on-site, and the inability of the current waste disposal contractor to support the specific scope of work. Performance is expected to begin in late December 2025 to ensure facility readiness. The contracting officer, Kimberly Cavanaugh, determined the pricing to be fair and reasonable based on published rates and prior purchases. No formal competitive evaluation was conducted, as the action was processed under simplified acquisition procedures to meet operational urgency.
