The Government will consider all timely responses to determine whether to proceed with the sole-source award or conduct a competitive procurement instead.

This procurement is not subject to any small business set-asides. HABCO Industries LLC, identified by CAGE code 51826, is the named incumbent contractor and stated intended sole-source awardee. The notice does not specify an award value or budget range for this purchase order.
