Single Source Justification_Boom Crane_Redacted.pdf

This Single Source Justification document details a sole source contract for boom crane inspection services for the 309 Missile Maintenance Group at Malmstrom AFB. The contract is for a one-time, five-year inspection, maintenance, and repair effort for three National Crane Boom Trucks (1100 series, 28-ton) at the 583rd Missile Maintenance Squadron. Due to certification requirements by ASME/ANSI and AFMAN 91-203, and challenges finding qualified contractors in Malmstrom's remote location, Sanford Federal, Inc. was awarded the contract as the sole qualified source.

The document highlights that two small businesses initially responded to the solicitation, but one withdrew after an amendment, and the remaining business was unable to fulfill subcontractor obligations. MGX Equipment Services is the intended awardee, having been the only qualified source on SAM.GOV. The Air Force is working with 341 CONS LGC at Malmstrom to potentially expand future contracting opportunities and reduce the contracting footprint. The contract is anticipated to be awarded on March 10, 2025, with the Contracting Officer (Melissa Huston, GS-12) determining that a single source is reasonably available under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
