- Description
- ***NOAA’s Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Innerspace Corporation, for the purchase of four 1002MPx Thursters. ***The sole source determination is based on replacing the exact make and model of a 1002MPx Thurster to be used on the NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer. The 1002MPx thrusters are only manufactured by Innerspace Corporation. The required thursters shall be fabricated using compatible components to the existing thrusters the government already possesses for this application. No other manufacturer/supplier would have an item for item product like this. The requirement will provide for not only a direct plug and play replacement of the existing components but shall also provide for the interchange ability of any and all individual components should the need arise at sea. Any deviation from the specifications shall be deemed unacceptable for the intended purpose of this request. Innerspace Corporation is the sole manufacturer of this exact item. The delivery date for this solicitation is April 30, 2010. ***This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide equipment that fully meets the Government’s requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Such documentation will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to conduct a competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
