This document is a Determination to Solicit from a Single Source for the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Basin office. The solicitation (140R3025Q0031) seeks to replace ten ABB Microshield over current relays with SEL-851 Overcurrent/Reclosing Relays (Sales Item Number - 851#KJ2K) manufactured by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories.

Market research was conducted on GSA Advantage, GSA Library, and through SBA Dynamic Small Business search, yielding 104 results. Three responses were received, all from small businesses. As a result, the requirement will be solicited as a total small business set-aside. The procurement aims to maintain consistency and program compatibility between Station Service Switchgear and Unit Control Modernization (UCM) equipment, with price reasonableness to be determined based on competitive quotations or offers. The document was prepared by Gilbert Mincey and approved by Contracting Officer Luis Gallardo in March 2025.
