Notice of Intent to Award on an Urgent and Compelling Basis to SCS Services Inc.

Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southeast, Jacksonville, FL intends to award a sole source purchase order to Siddons-Martin Emergency Group, 3200 Westbank Expressway, Ste. A, Harvey, Louisiana 70058 for equipment, parts, maintenance services, and/or technical support specifically for a Pierce Contender Firefighting Apparatus at Naval Station Joint Reserve Base (NAS JRB) New Orleans. The requested services are required to maintain operational readiness and ensure safety compliance on a N7303292 Pierce Contender Firefighting Apparatus Asset at NAS JRB New Orleans.

This sole source requirement meets the conditions of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), only one responsible source has been identified as reasonably available to provide the services that will satisfy the agency requirements in the required time frame. Due to an unusual and compelling urgency, SCS Services Inc., was identified as being the only company local to NAS JRB with the ability to provide a timely delivery/commencement of transfer case replacement services for the aforementioned Emergency Vehicle that is currently non-operational. This Emergency Vehicle plays a key role in the emergency response coverage, and its continued downtime reduces fleet capacity and increases response times. In addition, with fewer frontline vehicles available, the department may be forced to reassign units from other districts, reducing coverage in surrounding areas and increasing wear on remaining apparatus. Any delay in restoring full functionality to this fire truck impairs the department’s ability to meet its emergency response obligations, particularly in high-risk or multi-alarm incidents

No questions will be addressed.
