About this opportunity
The Department of State is announcing its intent to sole-source elevator control system upgrade goods and services to Continental Associates Pvt. Ltd under FAR 12.102(a), with offers due May 22, 2026 at 17:00 local time. The US Embassy in Kathmandu intends to negotiate directly with this vendor rather than compete the requirement.
The work scope covers restoration of two OTIS GEN2 traction elevators (GMMS 3361 and 3362) installed in December 2005 at the Chancery building. The existing TCBC controller, SPBC communication board, and VVVF drive system are obsolete and no longer supported by the manufacturer. The contractor must remove all existing components and install replacement systems: GECB EN controllers, OVF R03B-404 drives, SPBC II communication boards, and 326VA control transformers (two per elevator). Critical OBO-mandated security features—T17 Night Shutdown and Capture Operations—have been non-functional since September 2023 and must be restored. Work includes system integration and programming, functional testing per ASME A17.1 standards, on-site training to Embassy facility management staff, and comprehensive documentation.
Vendors able to fulfill these requirements should submit responses via email to KTMContracts@state.gov. The contracting officer is Albina Collingham. NAICS code 333921; PSC Z1NZ.
