About this file
This document is a Single Source Justification form for a simplified acquisition by the 60th Contracting Squadron at Travis Air Force Base. The procurement involves two Raymond Material Handling Equipment forklifts: one Model 5600-OPCT30TT order picker and one Model 7200-R35TT reach truck for Building 549's warehouse. The justification for a single-source procurement is based on compatibility with the existing wire guidance system, which operates at 6.25KHz and 225 ma p-p, and the fact that current warehouse mechanics are trained specifically on Raymond equipment.
The document indicates this is a potential Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside opportunity with an estimated contract cost of $0.00. Market research conducted in FY24 and FY25 revealed multiple small businesses capable of fulfilling the requirement. The brand name specification will remain in effect until the 60th Logistics Readiness Squadron changes its entire warehouse management system. The contracting officer, Marcus Thomas, determined on 29-Apr-2025 that a single source is reasonably available under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
