About this opportunity
The Air Force Special Operations Command has issued a Special Notice announcing their intent to award a sole source contract to M.I.C Industries Inc. for the refurbishment of an Ultimate Building Machine 240 (UBM-240). This notice was posted by the 1st Special Operations Contracting Squadron at Hurlburt Field, Florida, on behalf of the 823d RED HORSE Squadron. The contract falls under simplified acquisition procedures and will utilize other than full and open competition authority. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, with a PSC code of J034 for metalworking machinery maintenance and repair. The contract is set to be awarded directly to M.I.C Industries Inc., located in Clearbrook, Virginia, as the original equipment manufacturer.
The primary purpose of this sole source procurement is to refurbish a 2011 UBM-240 machine that has experienced multiple points of failure and cannot be repaired internally by military personnel. The government has determined that M.I.C Industries Inc. is the only reasonable source available, as they are the original manufacturer with the capability to restore the equipment to factory standards at a lower cost than purchasing a new unit. The notice establishes a response deadline of July 14, 2025, though this is not a request for competitive proposals. While the government intends to proceed with sole source procurement, they will review any responses received by the deadline to determine whether competitive procurement should be conducted instead. The procurement is supported by AFI 10-209 RED HORSE Program requirements, which specifically lists the UBM-240 from MIC on the unit's authorized equipment listing.
