About this opportunity
The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Engineering Research and Development Center-Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (ERDC-CERL) seeks to procure hydraulic grip controllers, seal kits for actuators and grips, and an additional input A/D converter card from MTS Systems Corporation on a sole source basis. ERDC-CERL owns equipment originally manufactured by MTS over 50 years ago, and MTS is the only source that can provide fully compatible replacement components to avoid potential malfunctions or damage. Interested parties must submit capability statements by January 17, 2024 for consideration, however, there is no guarantee submissions will change the stated sole source acquisition strategy.
This requirement has no set-aside designation. As the current manufacturer of over 50 years, MTS Systems Corporation is identified as the sole anticipated contractor due to its unique ability to supply fully interoperable components. No budget range or total value was included, however, the notice seeks specific replacement parts and training indicative of a smaller contract size. The NAICS and PSC codes were not specified.
