--SOLE SOURCE ANNOUCEMENT

The US Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity intends to award a sole source contract to Lemax/Ram, Incorporated, located in Baltimore, MD, for the repair of a Beliot Generator system. The decision to proceed on a sole source basis is justified by the potential for significant delays and disruption, which could have serious National Security consequences if another manufacturer were engaged. Additionally, selecting a different contractor would likely result in higher costs for the government. This procurement is conducted under the exception to full and open competition as outlined in FAR 6.302. Though the contract is sole source, the agency invites all responsible sources to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for consideration. If no responses are received within fifteen days following the publication of this announcement, the purchase will proceed without further notice. The contract is associated with NAICS code 811310, and the official point of contact for this procurement action is reachable via the provided email address.
