- Description
- NAICS Code: 115310 The U.S. Forest Service, under the authority of the FAR Subpart 19.8 authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(5), intends to issue a firm fixed price, sole source purchase order to RED LEAF FORESTRY for Site Prep, Planting & Midstory Removal on the Daniel Boone National Forest, Stearns Ranger District, in McCreary and Pulaski Counties, Kentucky. This contract action was accomplished using other than competitive procedures because this is a purchase order where an exception to fair opportunity requirements was approved due to the 8(a) Small Business Partnership with the SBA which allows approved sole source contracts with those businesses identified under the program. RED LEAF FORESTRY will be selected as the awarded vendor for Site Prep, Planting & Midstory Removal as listed in proposal. The USDA Forest Service requires this service. This sole source requirement meets the conditions of Section 8(a) of the Small Business Act (15 USC 637(a)(1)) and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 19.8 under authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(5). Information received as a result of this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a future competitive procurement. This synopsis is for notification purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for bids, quotes, or proposals. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 115310. This will be a firm fixed price contract. The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this notice. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE IS AVAILABLE. Contractor selected is capable of supplying the requirements because of their experience within this field of work and has the necessary skills to adequately provide these services. Contractor selected also has explicit and intimate knowledge of the specific project for which those services are required. Notwithstanding, interested parties who believes they are capable of meeting Forest Service requirements as stated herein may submit a response that shows clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation of offers. A determination not to compete the proposed Purchase Order based upon the responses is solely within the discretion of the Government. All questions should be directed to David Easter via email to david.easter@usda.gov no later than 11:59 am CST 5 calendar days after the date of this announcement. Telephone inquiries are discouraged.
