Notice of Intent to Sole Source – 7 Month FY26 Base with three 12 Month Calendar Year Options for Elevator Preventive Maintenance and Emergency Call Back Service for the Indian Health Service (IHS) Gallup Health Medical Center based in Gallup, NM Description This is a combined synopsis/solicitation Notice of Intent to sole source for commercial services. The acquisition will be pursued as a sole-source purchase award to TK Elevator Corporation. The authority for this noncompetitive award has been waived from the Buy Indian Act (25 U.S.C. 47; 25 U.S.C. 5307), as implemented by HHSAR Subpart 326.6 and FAR 6.302-5(b)(4), which allows the HIS to limit competition to Indian Economic Enterprises (IEEs) or ISBEEs, or make a sole-source award when only one responsible ISBEE is reasonably available. Since no IEE or ISBEEs can be identified to satisfy the IHS policy objective, after Sources Sought was published with no responses, and five companies listed as having GSA contracts and being specializing in elevator services listed as Native American or Alaskan Native status were contacted via email to ask for their capabilities and confirmation of IEE or ISBEE status, and no responses were received, a Buy Indian Act (BIA) waiver was processed and approved, this announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are not being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Only one vendor was identified to fulfill this requirement, a large business. The Indian Health Service (HIS) within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) intends to award a firm-fixed-price purchase order on a sole-source basis to TK Elevator Corporation, located in Albuquerque, NM, to procure a base of 7 months of professional elevator maintenance service for the Gallup Health Medical Center.
