- Description
- The Broadcasting Board of Governors/International Broadcasting Bureau's (BBG/IBB) Office of Contracts (M/CON) intends to negotiate and award a non-competitive contract to Harris Corporation, Broadcast Communications Division, 4393 Digital Way, Mason, OH 45040 for a re-commission and change-frequency of the Harris DX600 transmitter that was relocated from Rhodes, Greece last year. This is a sole source procurement in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), FAR Subpart 6.302-1(a)(1) under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1), other than full and open competition, only one (1) responsible source and no other sources or services will satisfy Agency requirements. Harris Corporation is the only firm with propriety information and technical knowledge needed to retune the transmitter from 1260 kHz to 1386 kHz: make software and hardware upgrades to ensure the current OEM specifications are satisfied; oversee and assist with the installation and re-commissioning of the DX-600 for use in Kuwait; provide repair and spare parts; furnish operating and maintenance manuals, and provide training on the operation and maintenance of the DX-600. Harris Corporation originally delivered and installed the same transmitter in Rhodes, Greece in 1995, and also provided three essentially identical (two were larger) transmitters at other IBB site. Interested firms must submit adequate documentation of their capability to respond to this requirement in writing within fifteen (15) calendar days after the posting date of this notice. All documentation submitted shall be sufficient in depth and detail to allow for an evaluation without the need for added information. The Government will not accept oral or incomplete submissions. A final determination by the Government not to compete this proposed procurement will be based upon the response to this Public Notice, and is solely within the discretion of the Government. All inquiries concerning this matter shall be submitted in writing to Contracts Office Point of Contact, Berel Dorfman, who can be reached via E-mail at Bdorfman@IBB.Gov.
