Notice text
The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, Caracal Enterprises, LLC. 1260 Holm Rd Ste A Petaluma, California 94954-7152, under authority of FAR 6.302-1. Caracal Enterprises, dba Ventek International (small business) is the proposed contractor. The subject pay machines (Ventek) were purchased through Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and included the first year of digital/maintenance services. The machines are Ventek machines, and they own the software rights that perform collection, reporting, and transfer of park user fees to the US Treasury on the Governments' behalf. Furthermore, Caracal has in-depth knowledge, experience, and expertise of how each fee machine functions within the system, how the components are installed, and how to best repair a failed machine without jeopardizing the integrity of the parks. This experience provides them with inherent knowledge which will allow for a more cost effective and expeditious repair/replacement of the failed machines. Therefore, Caracal is the only source reasonably available.
It is anticipated that a Firm-Fixed Price Contract will be awarded. The NAICS code is 334514, and the size standard is 850 employees.
Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement; however, this notice is NOT a request for competitive proposals. All capability statements received within fifteen (15) days after date of publication of this notice will be reviewed by the Government and considered. The notice publication date is 13 May 2024, and the deadline date is 27 May 2024. However, a determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. All questions should be sent by via email to Jeff Mason at jeffery.j.mason@usace.army.mil.
