- Description
- The Fleet & Industrial Supply Center (FISC) Norfolk, Contracting Department, Philadelphia Office intends to procure on a sole source basis from Spacesavers Systems, Inc. of Kensington, MD the acquisition and installation of high-density mobile shelving units for the Navy Historical Center, Washington, DCs Operational Archives Branch and Navy Department Library which maintain archives of documents, photographs, and books that are invaluable historical assets used to tell the story of naval history and its heritage. Spacesavers mobile shelving rail system will provide long term performance because they use one-piece solid steel rail sections which prevent delamination and separation of multiple rail components. All other vendors use multiple-piece rails that are butt joined and do not have the anticipated life of the proposed vendors rails. Also, Spacesavers is the only system that drives its carriages from both sides and both ends. This balanced drive system virtually eliminates the tendency for carriages to twist and bind as with a drive shaft system that drives wheels on only one side of the carriage. No other vendors mobile shelving units provide this precise of a drive system. The anticipated award date is on or around 1 Jul 08 with delivery and final installation required 240 days after date of contract. A firm fixed price contract is anticipated. The acquisition shall be processed using the Simplified Acquisition Procedures under the test program for commercial items found at FAR 13.5. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 337215. The solicitation will be made available electronically upon its release, which is anticipated on or about 1 May 08 at the NECO web address: www.neco.navy.mil. The proposed contract action is for supplies and services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of Section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, as implemented by FAR 13.501(a). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit a quotation. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all proposals received within 30 days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government.
