About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Walla Walla District, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a contract for NWW HQ Elevator Maintenance Services. The notice pertains to maintenance services for elevators at the USACE Headquarters building, which has been without routine maintenance since May 2024. The contract will be awarded under the Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Program, specifically utilizing the sole source provisions outlined in FAR 19.1506(b). This is the government's second attempt to award a contract for these services, following the termination of a previous contract. The procurement will cover a base year plus two option years for maintaining three elevators in the Walla Walla District.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform industry of the government's intent to award a sole source contract to Vertical Options, a Women-Owned Small Business. Interested parties may submit their capabilities in writing to Victoria.l.conway@usace.army.mil by 9:00 AM PST on December 16, 2024, though this is not a formal solicitation. The contract falls under NAICS code 561210 for Facilities Support Services, and the government determined that there is no reasonable expectation of receiving quotes from two or more WOSB concerns. Eligibility is specifically limited to Women-Owned Small Businesses, with Vertical Options being the identified contractor due to their existing work within the Walla Walla District and proven responsibility. The sole source approach is justified by market research that included contacting 91 small elevator businesses, none of which provided quotes, and the urgent need to address safety compliance concerns related to elevator maintenance.
