About this opportunity

Paragraph 1:

The USDA-ARS (Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Field Research Implementation and Information Delivery Plains Area) is seeking vendors to potentially provide Boiler Replacement services through a sole source contract with Firelake Construction Inc. This is a Sources Sought Notice only, not a request for quotes, bids, or proposals. The agency is interested in determining if there are any vendors that can provide the same technical specifications as the proposed sole source contractor. Respondents should provide information to help the agency determine if the requirement is commercially available, including pricing, delivery schedules, and other relevant details.

Paragraph 2:

This opportunity is not set aside for any particular business size or type. The agency has not committed to conducting a competitive solicitation, but if one is released, it will be posted on the Governmentwide Point of Entry. The proposed contract with Firelake Construction Inc. would be a firm fixed price contract, but the agency has not disclosed any potential award value or budget range. Respondents should provide their business information, including size and any applicable small business certifications, as part of their response to this Sources Sought Notice.
