These unique requirements in terms of security, and availability result in only a single or a very limited number of responsible sources with no other supplies or services capable of satisfying Embassy requirement in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 253 (c) (2), Far 6.302-2. Ecuador is experiencing an unprecedented energy crisis resulting in a reduction in electricity generation. Therefore the Government of Ecuador is mandating daily rolling electrical blackouts in excess of 10 hours, on different schedules, that is impacting the entire country. It is expected that these power outages will continue for months and even up to two years due to a failing grid, deteriorating hydroelectric dams and a severe drought. USDH residences are not equipped to manage these outages, making it very difficult on officers and family members to endure this crisis.","origin":"extract"},"notice_type":{"code":"s","label":"Special Notice"},"schema_version":1,"solicitation_number":"PR14977081","place_of_performance":{"city":{"name":"QUITO"},"state":{"code":"EC-P"},"country":{"code":"ECU"}},"product_service_code":"6115"}],"due_at":"2024-12-01T22:00:00Z","due_date":"2024-12-01","closes_at":"2024-12-01T22:00:00Z","awardable":false,"dept_key":"d-019","dept_name":"STATE, DEPARTMENT OF","sub_key":"s-1900","sub_name":"STATE, DEPARTMENT OF","office_key":"o-19EC75","office_name":"U.S. EMBASSY QUITO","state":null,"county":null,"county_name":null,"city":null,"city_name":null,"country":"ECU","winner_key":"LN9PU5M2YZN5","amount":null,"linked_awards":1,"cancelled":false,"archived":false,"updated_at":"2026-09-16T21:18:12.857524Z","principal_notice_id":"edd0319594a844f6a7eb816f3df299ce","description":{"text":"Description: The US Embassy Quito, Office of Contracting, intends to award a sole source contract to Cubano Agricultural Management CAM S.C.A. for the purchase of Emergency Electric power stations with backup portable solar panels.
