Description

INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE

United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBA, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344

This is a combined Sole Source Synopsis/Solicitation published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the acquisition of a Hyper-Cam xLW Mini. It was determined that Telops Inc., a large business, can meet the Government's specifications in the attached Statement of Work. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), resulting in a Firm-Fixed-Price contract.

The proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code 334516. Size Standard is 1,000 employees. The proposed source, Telops Inc., 100-2600 Avenue St-Jean-Baptste Quebec, Canada, G2E6J5 is the only manufacturer that meets all requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation, or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: Telops Inc. is the only known business capable of meeting the Government's requirements. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the Government to award to Telops Inc. Please see Attachment 2, Sole Source Justification, for more complete details.

Important Notice to Contractors: All prospective awardees are required to register at the System for Award Management (SAM) and to maintain active registration during the life of the contract. SAM can be accessed at https://www.sam.gov.
