This special notice announces the agency's intention to award a non-competitive firm-fixed-price contract to KoneCranes Nuclear Equipment & Services, LLC (KNES) under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), which permits other than full and open competition. The procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1, which allows sole source contracting when only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. The notice was posted on July 17, 2025, and establishes a deadline of July 25, 2025, for any responses from potential alternative sources. NAVFAC emphasizes that this is not a request for competitive quotes or proposals.
The primary purpose of this notice is to inform the contracting community of the government's intent to proceed with a sole source award while providing an opportunity for other potential sources to demonstrate their capabilities. Any companies other than KNES that believe they can provide the required crane wheel replacement and alignment services may submit capability statements via email to Contracting Officer Timothy Smart by 4 PM PT on July 25, 2025. The government has made clear that it is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of submissions or provide feedback to respondents. Oral communications are not accepted, and any determination to maintain the sole source approach or proceed with competitive procurement remains at the government's discretion. The information received will be used solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted, and no formal solicitation will be issued based on this notice.
