RFI SOLE SOURCE COAST MACHINERY

The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources is seeking to procure a Marsh Master MM-2MX-KC with KOHLER ENGINE from Coast Machinery LLC through a sole source procurement. The machine is necessary for habitat management on waterfowl management areas, and no other equipment on the market can meet the Agency's needs. The contract will include the provision of the machine, attachments, and a walk-through introduction. The sole source procurement is justified due to the unique requirements of the Agency and the lack of alternative equipment that can withstand the harsh environmental conditions. • The machine will be used for habitat management on waterfowl management areas. • The contract includes the provision of a cutter, roller chopper, spray rig, and modification to attach an existing ditching attachment. • The machine will be delivered with a walk-through introduction. • The sole source procurement is justified due to the unique requirements of the Agency and the lack of alternative equipment.
