About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Contracting Command - New Jersey (ACC-NJ), on behalf of the Combat Capabilities Development Command - Armaments Center (DEVCOM-AC), awarded a sole-source purchase order to Mid-American Elevator Company, Inc. for maintenance and support services of the Tower Hoist system, effective through August 2028.
The contract covers one base year and two optional renewal years. Performance occurs at Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. The requirement encompasses monthly preventive maintenance inspections, repairs, and emergency repair services for custom-designed rack-and-pinion hoist lift systems that support government research, development, testing, and evaluation activities in the Precision Armaments Laboratory Tower.
The sole-source justification invokes FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. The government asserts that Mid-American Elevator Company is the only reasonably available source because the hoist systems feature custom-designed components with specialized controllers and proprietary software requiring intimate knowledge that only the original equipment manufacturer possesses. Mid-American (formerly USA Hoist Co.) holds proprietary rights to the original PAL hoist tower drawings as the original subcontractor. A Sources Sought Notice was published October 30, 2024, with response deadline November 19, 2024. Previous sole-source awards to Mid-American occurred July 25, 2018 and September 20, 2022.
The contract type is Firm Fixed Price. The NAICS code is 561210 (Facility Support Services), with a small business size standard of $47.0 million. This is an unclassified effort. The synopsis is not a guarantee of future solicitation activity and responses do not constitute binding quotes.
