- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) intends to award a sole source contract to Mariposa Consulting, LLC under the authority of 41USC 253(c)(1), Only One Responsible Source. The NOAA Commerce Administrative Management System (CAMS) Implementation Center (IC) requires the services of a contractor with expertise in their Core Financial System (CFS) functionality plus knowledge of their organizational issues, strategic planning, and issue resolution to provide limited transition services and strategy development for continued satisfactory CAMS performance at NOAA. Mariposa Consulting, LLC is the only known contractor with the required expertise that can complete the work in the time frame required. Mariposa Consulting has an in-depth understanding of the CFS and the NOAA business processes and organization. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, the Government's requirements can only be met by Mariposa Consulting and no other source is capable of providing the required services. Therefore, the Government anticipates award of a sole source, time and materials, purchase order to Mariposa Consulting on or after September 29, 2003. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Questions and requests for information regarding this announcement should be directed to Carol Silverman, Contracting Officer, at 301-258-4505 X226 or csilverman@doc.gov. Any responses received as a result of this announcement will be considered by this agency. Numbered note 22 applies. On April 3, 2003 a proposed rule was published in the Federal Register requiring venders doing business with the Federal Government to register in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. Information submitted to the CCR database will include contractor identification and payment information that will be used to facilitate electronic payment. If the proposed rule is finalized in a form that is substantially similar to the April 3 rd version, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Acquisition Management Divisions, will require that all contractors doing business with its Acquisition Offices be registered with the Central Contractor Registry (CCR) before October 1, 2003. After this date, NO award can be made unless the vender is registered. For additional information and to register in CCR please access the following web site: http://www.ccr.gov/. In order to register with the CCR and to be eligible to receive an award from this acquisition office, all offerors must have a Dun & Bradstreet Number. A Dun & Bradstreet number may be acquired free of charge by contacting Dun & Bradstreet on-line at https://www.dnb.com/product/eupdate/requestOptions.html or by phone at (800) 333-0505.
