About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract to IXOM Watercare INC for preventative maintenance services at Camp Pendleton, California. The contract specifically covers maintenance and parts for two SB10000 aeration/recirculation units located in Lake O'Neill. These aerators were originally purchased from SolarBee, Inc. in 2005 to address eutrophic and anoxic conditions that negatively impact the lake's recreational and ecological value. The maintenance contract can only be fulfilled by specialized technicians from IXOM Watercare, which formerly operated as Medora Corporation. The opportunity is classified as a Small Business set-aside and was posted on June 6, 2025, with a due date of June 13, 2025.
The primary objective of this contract is to ensure continued operational maintenance of the lake's aeration units through specialized technical services. The sole source justification is based on IXOM Watercare's exclusive proprietary rights to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts and labor for these specific aerators. The contract will cover four preventative maintenance periods and is being processed under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. Contractors must be capable of providing brand-specific maintenance for the SolarBee units, with no alternative providers authorized to perform the required services. The contract falls under the Water Supply and Irrigation Systems NAICS category (221310) and the Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment PSC category. Eligibility is limited to small businesses with the technical expertise to work specifically with these specialized aeration units, and interested parties must respond by the June 13, 2025 deadline.
