(CAGE Code: 3FKG8) to procure 250 tons of engineered soil for numerous projects in the areas of Underbody Blast (UBB) research. Soil type and placement conditions are critical factors when conducting Underbody Blast (UBB) experiments. One of the most prevalent challenges presented within this testing community is how to conduct a UBB test that can be replicated in a series of test schedules performed in another geographic region. Soil is among the most critical variables affecting UBB test results because soil types and conditions are constantly varied from one location to the next. Conducting a UBB experiment on a repeated basis proves to be a significant challenge unless Engineered Soil (ERS) can be procured. ERS refers to any soil material that meets a series of geotechnical specifications laid out in Chapter 2 of ATC’s IOP-SLV-005 Rev1. The unique characteristics detailed are critical to the continuation of the GSL’s mission and continued research in this sponsored UBB test series. Since alternative material will not be deemed acceptable, it is determined that Stancills, Inc is the only vendor that can provide the engineered soil that can meet the government’s exact specifications. Therefore, the Government intends to award a Firm-Fixed price contract to Stancills, Inc. in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Stancills, Inc. is a small business concern under the applicable NAICS code 212319 (Other Crushed and Broken Stone Mining and Quarrying) with a size standard of 500 employees.
