About this opportunity
The United States Air Force Academy's 10th Contracting Squadron has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for embroidery machines intended for the cadet tailor shop located at the Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. This presolicitation notice announces the government's intent to award a firm fixed-price purchase order on a sole-source basis to Barudan America, Inc., the exclusive distributor of embroidery equipment in the Colorado region. The requirement falls under NAICS code 333248 (All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing) and PSC 3530 (Industrial Sewing Machines and Mobile Textile Repair Shops), with a small business size standard of 750 employees. The anticipated contract award date is on or before September 30, 2026, subject to fund availability. This notice provides an opportunity for interested parties to challenge the sole-source determination before the award is made.
The Air Force Academy seeks to procure two Barudan Single Head Embroidery Machines (BEKT-S1501CB3) with associated accessories, software, installation, and training services. The government determined that Barudan is the sole responsible source based on standardization requirements, existing equipment compatibility, personnel training, and exclusive distribution in the region. Interested contractors must submit capability statements with clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government by 10:00 AM Mountain Daylight Time on April 20, 2026, to wanda.farr@us.af.mil and danielle.hyde.2@us.af.mil. Since the requirement is valued below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, no separate Justification and Approval document will be published, and no formal solicitation will be posted. Potential competitors should note that this is a presolicitation opportunity to present objections to the sole-source award before it is finalized.
