SOLE SOURCE Due to the circumstances described above, the USDA APHIS PPQ Ponce Work Unit needs to procure for our location at the - Rafael Hernandez Airport, Predeparture area, Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, the following baggage conveyors systems: Provide and install two (2) new conveyors, MODEL XOM for new X-ray machine: One primary conveyor of 8 ft, and a secondary conveyor of 6.5 ft. These conveyors are needed for the movement of passenger baggage from the X-ray machine exit conveyor belt to the exit shutter or to the secondary inspection area. These conveyors will have the exact width as the new x-ray machine exit conveyor. Currently we do not have reliable conveyors which one of them is obsolete and breakdown continuously or the other is not an electrical conveyor, it is a manual conveyor that requires employees force to move baggage.
