    Description

    The Department of State intends to award a sole source contract to ENERIA for the total overhaul of the generator located in the USEU building, as required by the U.S. Embassy in Brussels. This firm fixed-price contract is necessary due to ENERIA's status as the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), making them the only responsible source capable of providing the proprietary parts and expertise needed for the generator's maintenance. The overhaul is critical for ensuring the generator's reliability and operational capability, given its age and the exclusivity of the required components. Interested parties may submit a capability statement by December 11, 2024, to Andrew Malandrino or Michael Abrahams at BrusselsBids@state.gov, as the government will consider all responsible sources' submissions before finalizing the contract.

    Title
    Posted
    The document details the justification for the Embassy in Brussels to pursue a sole-source contract with Eneria (Caterpillar) for the overhaul of a generator engine, estimated at $29,500. It outlines that Eneria is the only contractor capable of providing the necessary proprietary parts and expertise due to their status as the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The generator's age and the exclusivity of parts limit competitive options, necessitating this approach. The contractor will fully disassemble, assess, and rebuild the generator, ensuring its reliability and operational capability at the USEU building. The contracting officer has determined that the cost is reasonable based on past pricing for similar services. Additionally, no other vendors possess the required components due to proprietary constraints. While the agency acknowledges the importance of future procurement strategies that encourage broader competition, Eneria is presently the only viable solution for this critical maintenance, reinforcing the need for a non-competitive bidding process in this instance.
