About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior National Park Service Midwest Region has awarded contract 140P6326P0030 on a sole-source basis for hay required to feed bison during a September roundup and culling operation.
The contracting officer justified the sole-source acquisition under urgent and compelling circumstances rather than the availability of only one responsible source. The urgency derives from critical timing: the roundup operation cannot proceed without hay on hand for captured animals, and delivery is required between September 1 and September 24. The roundup is essential for reducing herd numbers to prevent over-population and resulting natural resource damage from over-grazing, a concern exacerbated by ongoing drought conditions that make maintaining acceptable stocking levels critical. Market research was not performed in the traditional sense, as hay functions as a market-based commodity with prices that fluctuate based on supply, demand, weather conditions, and regional availability rather than being sold at stable, preset prices. The Justification & Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition form was dated June 2, 2026, with PR Number 44045072, signed by contracting officer Joseph Kirk on June 4, 2026. The approval chain was not completed; the Warranted Individual 1 Level Above Contracting Officer signature line remains unsigned on the document provided. NAICS 311119 (Other Animal Food Manufacturing); PSC 8710 (Forage and Feed).
