- Description
- The United States Department of Agriculture- Forest Service (USDA-FS) intends to award a sole source order to Cat Pacific Truck Center. Cal Pacific Truck Center, LLC International, has over 1,000 dealerships across the USA and California. The fire trucks are deployed both in state and out of state in support of wildland firefighting assignments for approximately eight (8) months out of the year. Historically, when fire trucks have broken down out of the state or assigned Forest area the vendor where work had been performed could not cover the warranty because of not being in the location where the fire truck had broken down resulting in the loss of thousands of dollars in repairs and towing costs. With Cal Pacific having locations across California and the United States their warranty work would cover extensive locations with towing and repairs being provided by this vendor. Additionally, the vehicle is currently disassembled at the vendor�s shop and it would be impracticable to have it reassembled and towed to other repair shops. Cat Pacific Truck Center has mechanics that specialize in working on and repairing these specific truck systems. The estimated value of this procurement is around $47,000. This action is conducted under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for single source. The Government anticipates the award of a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 811198 -All Other Automotive Repair and Maintenance with an applicable size standard of $10.0M. This is a notice of intent and is not a request for competitive quotes. Any response to this notice is due in writing with sufficient information to establish capability to fulfill the requirements within five (5) business days of the date of this publication.

This action is conducted under FAR Part 13. System Award Management (SAM) registration is required for all vendors doing business with the USDA-FS. Interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement within five (5) calendar days of the publication of this notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed purchase order based upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
