- Description
- The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) at the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) intends to negotiate with only one source, Gibson-Barnes, 1900 Weld Blvd., #140, El Cajon, CA 92020, for Gentex SPH5C Helmets, to be used in wild land fire operations. This action is authorized by and in accordance with FAR 6.302-1. The Government believes that the only responsible source capable of satisfying the agency's requirement is Gibson-Barnes. The Gentex SPH5C Helmet is the helmet used by various federal programs. These helmets are a health and safety product used to insure the safe transport of all persons being transported in federal or contract aircraft. Policy concerning these helmets is established by OAS and USFS. A Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition has been prepared in support of this acquisition. The estimated value of this simplified acquisition is less than $300,000.00. No Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be issued and no response will be made to letters or telephone requests for a copy of the solicitation. This is not a request for competitive quotes, but serves as a procurement notice to fulfill public posting requirements in accordance with FAR 5.101(a)(1). The requirement is unrestricted and the NAICS code 339113 applies. Responsible firms believing they can provide the required items are encouraged to identify themselves and give written notification to the Contracting Officer referencing action item L13PS00578. However, they must provide convincing evidence that they can furnish the requested items at a cost that will not exceed the total estimated transaction cost. All responses will be fully considered. If no affirmative responses are received by June 17, 2013, to the effect that a comparable source exists, an order will be placed with Gibson-Barnes for the requirement stated here. Questions concerning this acquisition may be directed to Pat Phelps at 208-387-5717 or faxed to 208-387-5574.
