About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command published a sole source justification notice for the award of contract N3904025C0101 to Excel Modular Scaffold and Leasing Corporation for the rental of Excel modular-system scaffold material to support maintenance and repair work on a dry-docked submarine at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. The Navy justified the sole source procurement based on Excel Modular's exclusive distribution rights for their proprietary scaffolding system in the United States, emphasizing that the interlocking design of the Excel Scaffolding System is incompatible with alternative systems and that switching vendors would create safety risks and require significant workforce retraining. The contract was structured as a firm fixed-price commercial agreement with a base period and option to extend, though the specific award amount was not disclosed in the notice. The Navy determined that using alternative scaffolding systems would necessitate costly revisions to work instructions, potentially interfere with project timelines, and compromise the substantial existing investments in Excel-specific equipment and training. The contracting officer plans to ensure price fairness through historical price analysis and comparison with published price lists, while maintaining the possibility of reassessing competition if another potential source emerges in the future.
