About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs and Indian Education has awarded a sole-source contract to Caterpillar, Inc. for a 275 XE Compact Track Loader and D3 Fireplow Tractor for its Eastern Regional Office, with a total value of $461,523.00 (Compact Track Loader $179,319.00; D3 12B LGP Tractor $282,204.00).
The justification cites urgency under FAR authority for other than full and open competition. High fire activity, weather conditions, fuel conditions, and resource availability at Preparedness Level 5 (Extreme fire activity) designation necessitate direct procurement from the manufacturer rather than re-solicitation, as competitive procedures would result in unacceptable delays. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost fair and reasonable based on GSA pricing quotes dated July 14, 2026. Caterpillar is offering full warranty despite the equipment having been held for over one year. The requirement is classified as New with Firm-Fixed Pricing under Purchase Request 44052691. Caterpillar is located in Irving, Texas (UEI: C9C6HPQLL4A8). The contract was awarded September 10, 2026.
