Notice of Sole Source

Added: Apr 30, 2018 3:24 pm This announcement is posted to announce the Government's award of contract N3904017P0098 beyond the originally posted Base and Option periods ending on 04/19/2018. The extension is for three (3) of the four (4) units, and is necessary because of an unscheduled, unexpected delay causing the need to extend the rental period(s) of performance of these un-severable units. These three (3) units will be extended until 06/08/2018. As the units are currently connected, and in-use, it is in the best interests of the Government to extend the existing period of performance (POP) with Industrial Vacuum Equipment Corp., CAGE 1GGK9, of Ixonia, Wisconsin. Re-soliciting a new requirement, and awarding to a new/different vendor, represents risks and potentially negative impacts to the Project schedule, including equipment disconnecting/reconnecting, coordinating returns of current equipment, coordinating deliveries of new equipment, as well as any issues involved with connecting new equipment to the services currently in use with the existing N3904017P0098 equipment on-site. Bringing in new units would cause a work-stoppage, as well as additional delays.
