Unless amendments are issued extending the solicitation, the offers are due by 11:00 AM, Mountain Standard Time (MST), August 25, 2011. Point of Contact for this procurement is Sue C.

Mailing Address: NPS NEKOTA MABO, 24290 Doane Mountain Rd, Keystone, SD 57751 Fax: (605) 574-9077, Email address: sue_c_bennett@nps.gov Delivery: The method of delivery is FOB Destination. The offeror shall be capable of completing delivery not later than January 1, 2012. A brand name justification has been approved, pursuant to FAR 6.302-1. The approved brand is Moly Manufacturing, Silencer Heavy Duty Model hydraulic chute system, for equipment to meet the specifications as follows: ITEM #1 - Quantity 1 each Moly Manufacturing Silencer Heavy Duty Model Hydraulic Chute with the following options: 1. Rubber belted louvers on sidegates. These louvers eliminate visibility of the animals being handled, thus providing a calming effect and easier entry into the chute, and thus more humane handling of the animal.2. Rear walk through doors on the palipation cage. This option allows for access to the palipation cage from both sides of the chute which facilitates ultrasound and other procedures performed at the rear of the animal.3. Hydraulic neck extender bars, with additional neck access capability. These bars allow the neck of the animal being worked to be extended to facilitate sampling (e.g., blood) and marking of animals (e.g., micro-chipping, ear-tagging, tattooing vaccinates, etc.). They also eliminate the need for the use of nose tongs, which are painful to the animal, and a safety issue for staff attaching the tongs and dallying the animal to a snubbing post.4. Soft-stop system. This option on the Silencer model eliminates the need for a traditional "crash gate" which is used to stop forward momentum of the bison as it enters the chute. Traditional crash gates result in a violent collision between the animal and the gate and often result in injury (loss of horns and occasional mortality from broken neck). A chute that does not offer an option similar to the soft-stop system will not be considered.5. Integrated Weigh-tronix platform scale. The scale must be an integrated system that is part of the chute so that it can be moved when the chute is moved between units and can be stored in a covered facility when not in use.6. Portable. The entire system must be portable. This option enables the chute to be moved between the North and South units as needed (it is on its own chassis with wheels), and it allows for it to be stored indoors when not in use to protect it from the elements, thus prolonging the life of the system.7. Pivot control option for chute controls. This option allows for the chute controls (operated by one person) to be repositioned to either side of the chute to facilitate different sites and applications.
