About this opportunity

The Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Gordon, Georgia has issued a Special Notice regarding their intent to award a sole-source contract to BSD Robotics PTY LTD of Australia for maintenance services related to the BSD Servcon 12M US Gold Service equipment. This equipment supports the Defense Forensic Science Center and represents a lifecycle replacement of existing instrumentation to ensure continuity of operations. The Army is utilizing the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1) for "Only One Responsible Source" to justify the non-competitive procurement. The contract will be awarded under Simplified Acquisition Procedures per FAR Part 13 and commercial procedures under FAR Part 12. The notice explicitly states this is not a request for competitive proposals and no formal solicitation will be issued.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide transparency regarding the Army's intent to proceed with a sole-source award while allowing other potential contractors an opportunity to demonstrate that competition would benefit the government. Interested parties must submit written responses by 9:00 AM EST on June 24, 2025, providing clear and convincing evidence that opening the requirement to competition would be advantageous to the government. Oral communications are specifically not acceptable as responses to this notice. If no qualifying written responses are received by the deadline, the Army will proceed with the sole-source award to BSD Robotics without further notice. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to compete this requirement, and contractors must meet the burden of proving that competition would serve the government's interests better than the planned sole-source approach.
