About this opportunity

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, Procurement Operations East Zone, issued a Notice of Intent to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to A & A Sheet Metal Products (SECURALL) by July 31, 2026, for acquisition of one pre-fabricated agri-chemical storage container to be delivered to the Mark Twain National Forest, Salem Ranger District. SECURALL is the sole original equipment manufacturer of the required industrial unit, and alternative sourcing is restricted due to technical and structural constraints. The existing concrete pad at the Salem Ranger District compound was engineered and poured to SECURALL's exact specifications; sourcing from a different manufacturer would necessitate demolition, structural modifications, or complete re-pouring of the foundation, causing substantial cost duplication and operational delays. The unit features a heavy-gauge galvannealed double-wall steel system rated for winds up to 250 mph and includes a 12-gauge liquid-tight continuously welded steel sump flooring system for secondary spill containment, meeting EPA and OSHA-approved safety criteria required on-site for tracer paint storage. This is not a competitive solicitation, but interested parties may submit a capability statement to the Contracting Officer within the posting period for agency consideration; the Government retains sole discretion to compete the action based on responses received.

Notice text

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service, Procurement Operations (PROPS), East Zone, CSA East 6, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to A & A Sheet Metal Products (SECURALL) under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b).

Requirement: Acquisition of one (1) pre-fabricated Agri-Chemical storage container to be delivered and offloaded to a pre-existing concrete pad at the Mark Twain National Forest, Salem Ranger District. The structure will be utilized for the safe storage of US Forest Service tracer paint.

Justification Details: SECURALL is the Sole Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of this industrial unit. Sourcing from alternative providers is restricted due to technical and structural constraints:

  • Foundation Match: The existing concrete pad at the Salem RD compound was engineered, poured, and set to the exact structural layout specifications provided by SECURALL.
  • Cost & Delay Avoidance: Sourcing a different manufacturer would require physical demolition, structural modifications, or a complete re-pouring of the foundation pad, causing a substantial duplication of government costs and severe operational delays.
  • Safety & Compliance: The unit features a unique, heavy-gauge galvannealed double-wall steel system capable of withstanding winds up to 250 mph and includes a built-in 12-gauge liquid-tight continuously welded steel sump flooring system for secondary spill containment. This exact model satisfies specific EPA and OSHA-approved safety criteria required on-site.

This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. However, interested parties may submit a capability statement to the Contracting Officer within the posting period to be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
