- Description
- The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a contract on a sole source basis to Altium, Inc. of San Diego, CA under the authority of FAR 6.302.1. The purpose of this simplified acquisition is to provide FBI engineers with software that is compatible with previous versions of Protel and will allow previously prepared and qualified component libraries to be integrated into new designs. Introduction of a new software tool would require FBI engineers to expend additional funding for training and travel which is considered to be counter-productive since they are already familiar or are trained on other versions of the Protel software. This would place unnecessary burdens on an already taxed FBI budget, not to mention the crtical time off required for training that would make engineers unavailable for any unforseen emergency situations that may arise as a result of FBI field requirements. This award will be made utilizing simplified acquisition procedures under FAR Part 13. Interested concerns having the capabilities necessary to perform the stated requirement may submit a capability statement in a written format detailing the concern?s ability to meet the objectives of this requirement. Capability statements must reference RFP-0155024 and must be sent via fax to (703) 339-2760. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. No solicitation is available; therefore, requests for such a document will be considered invalid responses. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the government. If no affirmative responses are received within 10 days of this notice, the Contracting Officer will pursue a sole source contract with Altium, Inc.
