Mobile Rock Crusher

Solicitation Number: AG-02NV-S-08-0066

Agency: Department of Agriculture

Office: Forest Service

Location: R-4 IDAWY Acquisition Service Center

The Forest Service intends to award a HUBZone sole source contract to Roadtech Inc. under Negotiated Procedures for the purchase of a mobile rock crusher. This requirement is proposed to be a sole source procurement to a certified HUBZone company under the authority of the HUBZone Act of 1997 (15 U.S.C. 631 note) and FAR 19.1302. Justification for such procedures: This type of machine is less expensive to operate, recycles previously unsuitable material on site thereby eliminating disposal problems, can operate on small single lane roads, minimizes material handling and hauling costs, has low environmental impacts, and has the capability of blending soil stabilizers or dust abatement products into the road material. This method not only completely eliminates the costly removal and replacement of the material to be crushed, but can re-establish a native roadbed without spreading seeds and/or diseases from Forest to Forest.

This is a notice of intent and is not a request for competitive proposals. If there are businesses that can provide the aforementioned product, and meet the minimum requirements listed below, they must respond by submitting in writing an expression of interest in competing on the procurement and provide supporting documentation as to how their proposed product meets the stated minimum requirements by August 1, 2008 at 3:00 p.m. MST.

The mobile rock crusher must meet the following minimum requirements: The mobile rock crusher shall be capable of taking oversized rock that has been windrowed along the roadway and crush it as the machine progresses down the road. Operating sites may vary from steep, narrow mountain roads to developed pit sites. The machine shall be capable of blending all types of material, regardless of shape or hardness. Machine shall be capable of crushing rocks up to 16" to an aggregate graduation of ¾" minus. Mobile rock crusher shall be built to a size that does NOT require any oversize or overweight permits when being transported on State, County, or Federal Highway; crusher shall have adjustment capability of hammers and anvils to adjust for wear to increase the consistency of the aggregate produced; equipment shall be designed with a multi-position lift frame which allows the crusher head to be rotated so crews may work with the underside of the machine facing them at working level to increase safety; the crusher shall have shock protection to reduce vibration; have a removable anvil weldment for ease of service and repair, and the crusher shall have radial attachment of the tooling, which results in much easier and faster replacement of wear parts. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

Request for Information (RFI) for Refuse Resource Management (RM)

Solicitation Number: RFI1RMISWM

Agency: Department of the Air Force

Office: Air Education and Training Command

Location: Specialized Contracting Squadron

The Air Education and Training Command (AETC), Randolph Air Force Base (AFB), Texas, is conducting market research to identify organizations that are currently performing Resource Management (RM) concepts for Integrated Solid Waste Management, or have the capability to pursue such resource efficiency opportunities.

Please refer to the Resource Management document on the WasteWise website at: http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/reduce/wstewise/pubs/wwupda17.pdf to review the concept that the Air Force is interested in pursuing. RM is a strategic alternative to disposal contracting that seeks to continually improve resource efficiency through enhanced source reduction, recycling, and recovery. By tying incentives to the value of services that foster prevention, reuse, and recycling—with disposal as the last resort—RM encourages alignment of contractors’ activities with the customers’ in a new type of joint effort. AETC is seeking innovative, efficient business practices such as RM that provide significant opportunities to obtain potential cost savings and ultimately a more resource efficient product or process design.

This RFI is completely voluntary and does not constitute any form of direction or commitment from the Government, nor will the Government be liable for any costs incurred. This information will be used for MARKET RESEARCH PUPROSES ONLY. Industry is not required to respond for any upcoming solicitation. Your participation is greatly appreciated!

Questions relative to this RFI should also be directed to these individuals.

AS A REMINDER:

This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP), but instead is a market research tool to determine the availability and adequacy of potential sources for Resource Management concepts. This is NOT A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. REQUESTS FOR A SOLICITATION WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) industry group 5621 (waste collection) and 5622 (waste treatment and disposal) apply. Firms responding to this announcement should indicate their business size, particularly if they are a small business. "Small business" means small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business.
