- Description
- This is NOT a request for quote- USDA, ARS, NPRL intends to award a sole source purchase order to Peerless Manufacturing 2894 Hwy 83 East, Shellman, GA 39886 for a weighing dump wagon for small and large research trials including peanut, corn, and cotton. This weigh dump cart is unique because it is compatible for peanut, corn and cotton research. Unique features include a side delivery sample extraction port which allows sampling to be conducted during conveyance unloading. High capacity bin (minimum 5,000 pounds of peanuts) is necessary to allow capture and weight of both high density, high volume materials (corn, peanuts) and low density, high volume material (cotton). High clearance hydraulic cylinders for side dump off-loading are required to transfer materials from the weigh cart to larger conveyances. Side dump off-loading is required because we cannot use auger unloading in peanut and cotton due to crop damage and clogging. Load cell capacity range of 5 to 8000 lbs with a less than 0.5% accuracy is required. Our market research showed there are no other similar systems available that can do this, and there are no other distributors of this system.Our justification to award is in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. All inquiries on this action can be submitted in writing via email to juan.gaytan@ars.usda.gov NO LATER THAN 17 SEP 2018 @ 8:00AM EST. All information shall be furnished at no cost or obligation to the Government.
