- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City District is seeking sources that qualify under the Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a-10d), as provided for in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 25, and that can provide these materials. This is a Sources Sought announcement to seek information on businesses capable of providing items of commonly used construction materials. The purpose of this announcement is to determine potential materials providers and to confirm whether or not the below construction materials are manufactured in the United States in sufficient quantities. Therefore, we are only seeking sources of U.S. made products. U.S. made domestic end products are defined in FAR 25.101 as: 1) The article must be manufactured in the United States; and 2) The cost of domestic components must exceed 50 percent of the cost of all the components. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 431, this component test of the Buy American Act has been waived for acquisitions of COTS items (see FAR 12.505(a)). In order to determine whether sufficient quantities are produced, the head of the contracting agency may make a determination that an article, material or supply is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality; and if the contracting officer considers that the non-availability of an article is likely to affect future acquisitions, a waiver may be requested. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR PROPOSALS OR BIDS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement or any follow up information requests. Responses to this Sources Sought Announcement will be used to aid in making appropriate future acquisition decisions for the Kansas City District and possibly for use in other districts as well. After review of responses, and if the Government precedes with acquisition of these materials, solicitation announcements will be appropriately published. There is no proposal package or solicitation at this time. A List of Materials sought and instructions to respond are included by attachement. Responses are due NLT 28 July 2010.
