About this opportunity

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing intends to award a sole-source contract to KBA-NotaSys for original equipment manufacturer spare parts for three Super Orlof Intaglio III presses. The spare parts, detailed in Attachments A and B, are proprietary to KBA-NotaSys as the OEM, and no other sources are capable of supplying them. Interested parties may submit capability statements by April 8, 2020 to provide evidence that competition would be advantageous, though the decision to award sole source is at the agency's discretion. The requirement will be fulfilled through a fixed-price contract.

There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The NAICS code is 333244 for printing machinery and equipment. KBA-NotaSys is identified as the potential incumbent and current contractor as the OEM of the three presses requiring spare parts. No award values or quantities are specified in the notice beyond the spare parts lists in Attachments A and B.

Notice text

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR BIDS, QUOTES OR PROPOSALS. At this time no solicitation exists. This notification is being posted for information purposes only.

This procurement action is to award a sole source contract to KBA-Notasys for the procurement of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Spare Parts for three (3) Super Orlof Intaglio III (SOI III) presses used by BEP for currency manufacturing.

All parts listed in Attachment A (Mechanical Spares) and Attachment B (Electrical Spares) are manufactured and are proprietary to KBA-NotaSys. There are no other sources that are capable of supplying the OEM spare parts other than KBA-NotaSys. BEP does not possess the required capabilities in terms of labor, machinery or materials to produce these items. Therefore, the Government has determined the need to search for outside sources to procure these OEM spare parts.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) intends to sole-source this requirement and award a contract to KBA-NotaSys. The applicable North American Classification Code (NAICS) is 333244, Printing Machinery and Equipment.  

This Notice of Intent is NOT a request for competitive quotes.  If you feel that your firm / company can provide all the OEM spare parts in the attached parts list, please submit a capabilities statement by 12:00 PM EST, April 8, 2020.  The decision not to compete this requirement is within the discretion of the Government.  Any response to this notice must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government.  The Government may consider all capability statements received for future requirement.  POC is Ramon C Ramos, Contract Specialist, ramon.ramos@bep.gov. No telephone calls will be accepted for this action.
