About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock District (SWL) has issued a Special Notice regarding its intent to increase the ceiling and call limit for two existing Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) for the repair and maintenance of Tainter Gate Primary Gearboxes. The BPAs were competitively awarded on May 16, 2023 to KBH Thompson, LLC and Atlanta Gear Works, Inc.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform interested parties of SWL's plan to increase the call limit from $25K to $500K and the BPA ceiling from $2M to $5M for the two existing BPAs. This is due to market changes that have resulted in higher prices than originally anticipated. SWL is seeking feedback from responsible sources to determine if a competitive procurement would be advantageous. Responses must be submitted by June 14, 2024 and should demonstrate that competition would benefit the Government, would not be cost or time prohibitive, and that the interested party can meet the Government's needs. The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred in responding to this notice.
