Description

It is the intent of the National Library of Medicine (NLM), to negotiate on a sole source basis with Telco Power and Cable for a base plus four (4) one year option periods under the provisions of Far 6.302-1, for installing and maintaining the power and mechanical systems used in the computer center.CIT requires constant upgrading of the physical infrastructure, in particular the eletrical and mechanical aspects of the environment to provide services during power losses; and to ensure that those services will continue to run, and that data will not be lost. Many highly critical administrative and research oriented Departmental and IC programs rely on CIT?s ability to keep the multitude of systems up and running on a 24x7 schedule. The following clauses and provisions apply to this acquisition and may be obtained from the web site http://rcb.cancer.gov/rcb-internet/SAP/sap.htm: FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors ? Commercial, and FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions ? Commercial Items. The Addendum to Terms and Conditions of Purchase Order which is attached to this announcement also applies. FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation ? Commercial Items, also applies with the following two evaluation criteria to be included in paragraph (a) of the provision: (1) Experience in providing the specified professional services to CIT or other IT activity located in a Federal agency with a scientific mission such as NIH, and (2) past performance. An award will be made to the offeror who represents the best value to the Government whereby experience and past performance are given equal value and, when combined, are more important than price. Offerors must submit a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications ? Commercial Items, with their offers. The clause at FAR 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required to Implement Statutes or Executive Orders ? Commercial Items applies to this acquisition as well as the following clauses cited therein: FAR 52.219-6, Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside (June 2003), FAR 52.232-33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer ? Central Contractor Registration (October 2003), and FAR 52.239-1, Privacy and Security Safeguards (August 1996). This notice of intent is not a Request for Quotations (RFQ), nor is an RFQ available, however, all responsible sources may submit a proposal which will be considered by the NLM. Responses should sufficiently demonstrate the firm's ability to meet the government's requirements. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
