- THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c)(1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. DISA Central Field Command, 7115 S. Boundary Blvd, MacDill AFB, FL 33621-5101, for non-VOIP Telephone System (PBX) for Building 805, MacDill AFB. The 6th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Black Box Network Services 1010 Haley Road, Murfreesboro, TN 37129. Black Box Network Services Black Box Network Services has a local office in St. Petersburg that will perform the install and maintenance required by DISA Central Field Command. Interested parties may e-mail Scott.gebhardt1@macdill.af.mil or fax 813-828-5111, Attn: SSgt Scott Gebhardt, not later than Monday 28th July, 2007; 9:00 a.m. EST. DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT: SEE ATTACHED PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT Per FAR Part 5.207-13(e) Fed Biz Ops Numbered Note 22 applies and is modified to read: 22. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within five days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract 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. V. DEMONSTRATION THAT THE CONTRACTOR'S UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS OR NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRES THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED ABOVE (APPLICABILITY OF AUTHORITY) DISA requires a local Nortel PBX contractor for support due to the nature of its mission (24/7). A Nortel solution is required to interface with MacDill AFB existing Nortel SL-100 switch. Through local market research, we have contacted local telephone contractors to determine if they could meet our requirement and if the pricing would be feasible. The local contractors we contacted are: -Coleman Technologies, Inc. (Quote: $93,806 for Cisco equipment) -Network Liquidators (could sell only Nortel refurbished equipment) -MCSoft, Inc. (has not worked with the DoD; does not have the technical expertise) -Teamwork Net (has not worked with the DoD; does not have the technical expertise) Because of the high risk involved in dealing with contractors that do not totally understand both our PBX requirement that will support DSN and the interface involved with the 6th Comm. Squadron SL-100 switch, we have to exclude the above contractors. Nortel Government Solutions provided Black Box Network Services as a contractor that has a lot of DoD phone system experience. Additionally, the local Black Box vendor has worked on 6th Comm. Squadron's Nortel equipment.
