- Title: Planned Sole Source Contract with Smith-Root, Inc. for the maintenance of pulse-generating systems and computer control systems at the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal Aquatic Nuisance Species Dispersal Barriers System, Romeoville, IL Description: By way of this Notice and in accordance with the provisions of FAR 6.302-1, the Chicago District, US Army Corps of Engineers announces its intention to award a sole source contract to Smith-Root, Incorporated (SRI) of Vancouver Washington for the purpose of maintaining the pulse-generating systems and associated computer control systems at three Corps-operated electric fish barriers (Demonstration Barrier, Barrier IIA, Barrier IIB) on the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal in Romeoville, IL. The pulse-generating systems generate rapid direct current pulses of electricity that are then conveyed to underwater electrodes. They are a unique combination of specialized components and controls that were constructed and commissioned by SRI under previous contracts. SRI has technical personnel with specific experience in the operation, maintenance, and repair of these pulse-generating systems and has successfully maintained them in the past. A separate contract for operations, maintenance, and facility management services for other less-specialized components of the barriers system is being planned for competitive procurement. Under the proposed contract, the overall contract completion time will be 365 calendar days with a Government option to add an additional 365 calendar days. A firm-fixed price contract is proposed. This notice does not constitute a solicitation for offers, proposals, etc. However, interested firms may send a capabilities statement NO LATER THAN June 7, 2015. Statements should be sent to the attention of Wesley (Dale) Dewar at wesley.d.dewar@usace.army.mil ; ensure that the subject line of your email address includes the title/description of this announcement. Award is anticipated on or about August 26, 2016. This announcement is in accordance with FAR 5.1.1(a)(1). The point of contact is Mr. Dewar at (312)846-5370.
