- Description
- This contract action was not awarded competitively. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Washington, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB) Public Works Department has a requirement for School Bus TransportationReplacement Services for families that live on JBAB that require transportation toWashington DC schools.� Due to a poor response to our Sources Sought created onThursday April 16th 2020; based on capability, COVID 19 crisis constraints and experience�was�in the best interest of the Government to Sole Source to Benons L.L.C. FalconTransport. We received four (4) capability packages in response to our Sources Soughtannouncement and out of the four (4) responses only one (1) company demonstratedcapabilities to meet the minimum perform requirement of the service needed and that contractor is Benons L.L.C Falcon Transport. Some of the important factors we require areas follows: The Company had to have�access to own or rent eight to ten Yellow School Buses fromAug 31, 2020- June 2023. The company�also had to�be able to install camera surveillance forsecurity and must be appropriately licensed to transport children in the Washington DC school district. The company had to provide Past Performance Evaluation(s) that show recent andsuccessful performance of the same or similar work. This company has already been inplace and has performed well for the current time. The other qualifying capability package came in from a previous company.; who was a subcontractor for the previous T4C-(Termination for Default)�cancelled contract� This contractor�asked for two (2) months ahead of time to get buses before the procurement actually starts. We needed a contractor who had the buses ready to go and equipped (Benons L.L.C. Falcon Transport). On a previous contract, the sub-contractor- the same one that submitted a capibility statement, left students at a bus stop un-safely and refused to pick up students due to the issues they faced with the previous�prime contractor while holding the contact for the 2019-2020 School Year. Military families were affected greatly for weeks and we cannot risk that happening again. Because of the COVID-19 crisis we have a new time factor that�encouraged a�to Sole Source Award to Benons L.L.C Falcon Transport; predicting school will start earlier this year due to the early closing of school this year.
