Notice of Intent - Holzma HPP Panel Saw Repair

The US Army is intending to award a sole-source contract to Stiles Machinery, Inc. for the repair of a Holzma HPP Panel Saw located at Tobyhanna Army Depot in Pennsylvania. The contractor will be responsible for diagnosing the problem, determining a solution, providing parts, and restoring the panel saw to normal working conditions. The reason for the sole-source award is that Stiles Machinery, Inc. is the only company identified as providing service and repair of Holzma equipment, and they have access to proprietary parts and established procedures that other vendors do not. • The contract is for a non-personal services contract to evaluate and repair the Holzma HPP Panel Saw. • The contractor must diagnose the problem, determine a solution, provide parts, and restore the panel saw to normal working conditions. • The Government intends to acquire this service under the guidelines of FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures and FAR Part 12, Commercial Items. • The contract will be awarded under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
