The tentative period of performan ce for the requirement is from April 15, 2006 to April 14, 2009. Pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1), and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, services may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts f or the continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in a substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition; and unique supplies or services available from only one or a limited number of sources or from only one or a limited number of suppliers with unique capabilities. This contract is a follow-on effort to achieve requirements that are important to the overall real-time detector ef fort and are specific to what Palmar and Brigham Young University have completed over the past 2 years. The work required involves the iterative critical and final design process that is important in the completion of the development of the miniature GCMS . The work required also involves the integration of the GCMS onto the sample concentration delivery system (SCDS), and agent-TIC-TIMs validation on the AVLAG swatch fixture. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS; however, all responsible source s may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Supporting evidence must be furnished to demonstrate the ability to comply with the Government's requirements.
