- Description
- NAICS Code: 541710 The U.S. EPA, National Homeland Security Research Center (NHSRC), intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) Digital Forensics and Emergency Preparedness Institute under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1 to provide software enhancements to support the Agency in the development of vulnerability assessment and risk assessment tools for emergency responders. This notice is not a request for quotations. EPA source research indicates UTD is the only known contractor with the appropriate level of technical knowledge necessary to complete this project. Under a previous requirement for EPA, UTD developed software tools designed to make hazardous material information immediately available to emergency responders. Under this requirement, the contractor will be required to make enhancements to these software tools. As the developer of the software tools, UTD is uniquely qualified to make enhancements to the system. However, any firm believing itself capable of meeting EPA requirements may submit technical documentation to establish the potential of completing such work. This documentation must be submitted by 5:00 PM EST Thursday November 20, 2003. A determination not to compete the proposed purchase order based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed on a sole source basis. This acquisition is being processed under FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The applicable NAICS code is 541710. Parties should submit their technical documentation to Mr. Josh Bowers, using the following methods: 1.) by fax to 513.487.2109, or 2.) by email (bowers.joshua@epa.gov) referencing solicitation RFQ-OH-04-00018.
