Waders, Wading boots, Safety Glasses, Gloves , Respirators

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) plans to award a sole source, firm-fixed-price contract to Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. for the procurement of waders, wading boots, safety glasses, gloves, and respirators. The contract will be negotiated under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, allowing the ATF to bypass competitive bidding and negotiate with a single supplier. Interested parties who believe they can fulfill this requirement are invited to express their interest and capabilities by emailing James Huff at the provided contact by August 10, 2017, 2:00 pm EST. These responses will only be used to assess whether a competitive process should be pursued, and the government retains full discretion on whether to proceed with sole source procurement. This contract is identified under solicitation number DJA-17-AHDQ-PR-0040 and pertains to NAICS code 423910. The place of performance is Houston, Texas. All communications and responses must be sent via email to ensure consideration. The ATF’s evaluation of these responses will determine if the procurement remains a sole source or if it opens to competition, though the primary intent is to negotiate directly with Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. The point of contact for this acquisition is James M. Huff, reachable by email or phone.
