UBM 120 Repair Sole Source

The Department of the Army National Guard, specifically the 111th Mission Support Group at Biddle Air National Guard Station in Pennsylvania, has issued a Special Notice regarding a sole source procurement for UBM 120 repair parts and installation. The notice indicates the intent to award a firm-fixed price order directly to M.I.C. Industries for replacement parts and installation services for the UBM 120 system. The Contracting Officer has determined that M.I.C. Industries is the sole provider and maintainer of this specialized equipment. This Special Notice is classified under NAICS code 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, with a small business size standard of $12.5 million. The notice is designed to make the government's intention public and provide an opportunity for potential challenges to the sole source determination.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to publicly announce the government's intent to proceed with a non-competitive procurement and solicit potential feedback from other potential providers. Contractors interested in challenging the sole source determination must submit written responses via email to joshua.quap.2@us.af.mil no later than March 13, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST. Only written responses will be considered, with verbal communications explicitly excluded from consideration. The notice emphasizes that this is not a solicitation or request for proposal, and any information submitted should focus on demonstrating the capability to provide the required supplies and services. Responses will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement might be more appropriate in the future. Importantly, all submitted information must be provided at no cost or obligation to the government, and contractors must be prepared to offer clear, concise documentation supporting their potential capabilities.
