About this opportunity
The Department of the Army's Army Contracting Command APG, Tobyhanna Division, issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a procurement to Central Penn Sewing LLC on December 4, 2025. This special notice pertains to the acquisition of four specific Juki sewing machines: a PS800SS12080AKV Programmable Sewing Machine, a PLK-G2008H Programmable Pattern Sewing Machine, a TNU-243U Heavy Duty Sewing Machine, and an LK1920 Heavy Duty Tacking Sewing Machine, along with accompanying accessories. The sole-source procurement is being pursued under FAR 13.106-1(b) following previous unsuccessful competitive solicitations that failed to identify vendors capable of supplying all four machine types. The contracting officer is Kaila Black, and inquiries should be directed to kaila.e.black.civ@army.mil. This procurement falls under NAICS code 333248 (All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing) and PSC code 3530 (Industrial Sewing Machines and Mobile Textile Repair Shops).
The Army is providing a 24-hour window for interested parties to submit capability statements demonstrating competitive advantages, with a firm deadline of 4:00 pm EST on December 5, 2025. Capability statements should be addressed to Kaila Black at ACC-APG, Tobyhanna Division, located at 11 Hap Arnold Boulevard, Building 11, Tobyhanna, PA 18466. While this notice constitutes a proposed contract action, the government retains full discretion to determine whether to compete the procurement based on responses received. There are no specific set-asides or special eligibility criteria stated; however, firms must demonstrate the capability to supply all four specified Juki sewing machine models to be considered competitive. The government explicitly clarifies that this is not a request for quotation, and any responses will be evaluated at the government's sole discretion in determining whether competitive solicitation is warranted.
