'Apparent' Contractor Picked

Several days after I reported these two developments, the Dept. of Defense issued an uncommon "pre-award notice, advising potential contractors that the "apparent successful offeror" responding to the Riverine Plans Officer position is not a person, but a mysterious company that it identified as "Products & Services of the Americas" of Amarillo, Texas.

Thus far, I cannot find a trace of such a "company," despite conducting numerous name/phrase variations via Google and Yahoo! searches.

A Google satellite search did indeed pinpoint the address listed in the "special notice," which appears to be a house located in the midst of residential neighborhood.

I would encourage anyone with any information on this company to please follow up with a comment or even another story.
