Sole Source Justification Notice

This procurement action involves the sole-source acquisition of four 40-yard heavy-duty roll-off containers for delivery to Naval Base North Island and use across Naval Base Coronado, California, under solicitation number 47QSSC26Q0232. The contract is justified under FAR Part 6 as a sole-source award because SoCal Hydraulics is the only vendor capable of meeting the Government’s exact technical specifications, which include heavy-duty steel construction, reinforced structural components, precise dimensional compatibility with existing Government-owned roll-off trucks, and full compliance with OSHA, DOT, and industry safety standards. The total estimated value is $39,844, with each unit priced at $9,961, and the acquisition is based on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method, where all technical requirements are threshold criteria—failure to meet any single requirement results in rejection. The containers must be manufactured in the United States to satisfy Buy American Act requirements, and formal acceptance occurs at the delivery location upon verification of compliance with no allowances for deviations. The contracting activity is led by the General Services Administration’s Supply Chain Management Contracting Division, with Cara Fowler serving as the Contracting Officer and Kevin Sullivan acting in a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative capacity. No standard FAR Part 52 contract clauses are included, and no MIL-STD packaging, preservation, or marking requirements are specified, though compliance with general safety and operational standards is mandatory. Attachments include a Component Listing and Market Research documentation, supporting the justification that no other suppliers can meet the stringent performance and compatibility benchmarks established by prior operational experience and procurement history. The proposed contractor, SoCal Hydraulics, has been identified through an extensive market research process that confirmed the absence of suitable alternatives, and the acquisition is tied to requisition number N6247A6131003S. No option quantities, delivery windows, FOB terms, or invoicing protocols are detailed, and neither the contractor’s CAGE code nor its small business status is provided, though the affirmation of U.S. manufacturing triggers Buy American Act reporting obligations. The Justification and Approval notice will be published on SAM.gov as required under FAR 6.104.
