Sole Source - Security Cart

The U.S. Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security at Base Seattle, has issued a sole source purchase order to JRH LLC for a security cart under FAR authority 6.302-1, citing that only one responsible source is available and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency’s urgent operational requirements. This acquisition is conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures per FAR 13.106-1(b), with a firm-fixed-price contracting method and a maximum value not exceeding the $350,000 simplified acquisition threshold. The contract period is extremely brief, spanning only one day from June 29, 2026, to June 30, 2026, reflecting an emergent need tied to security operations during the FIFA World Cup. The procurement is justified by the loss of an existing security cart, necessitating immediate replacement to sustain mobile law enforcement capabilities. The NAICS code 441227 and PSC code 2350 classify the item as a motor vehicle-related operational asset. No solicitation has been issued, and no competitive quotes are being accepted; any response to this notice must provide clear, compelling, and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government. The only point of contact for inquiries is Michelle Myhra via email, with telephone requests explicitly prohibited. The contract is set for delivery and acceptance at USCG Base Seattle in Washington, with inspection and acceptance handled by the government based on functional readiness and conformance to commercial standards under FAR Part 12 and Part 13. No formal contract clauses, line items, pricing details, packaging specifications, or COTR/COR designations are provided. The vendor, JRH LLC, has a UEI of KT8ES3E9NGW7, and no socioeconomic set-asides apply. Submission of any response to this non-competitive action must occur by July 29, 2026, via email to the designated point of contact.
