This conference is required to facilitate the presentation of the Chief of Staff Team Excellence Award (CSTEA) award program and the reception. The requirements of this conference are for a large block of guest rooms (936ea) for 10 days, as well as a large ballroom for 24 hours a day for six consecutive days and two on site meeting rooms for 24 hours a day for three consecutive days. The AFA has chosen the Gaylord National Hotel as the official location for their event. The Gaylord National Hotel is the only hotel capable of meeting the requirements of the AFMA-hosted Chief of Staff Team Excellence Awards (CSTEA) conference. As a result of AFA bookings at the Gaylord National Hotel every year until 2018, and due to the limited capacity of hotels in the general vicinity of the Gaylord National Hotel to meet the requirements of AFMA's CSTEA, it is determined that no source other than the Gaylord National Hotel can meet this requirement. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. In accordance with FAR 6.301(d) the Government will consider any proposal received by the due date for this combined synopsis/solicitation. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract is solely within the discretion of the Government. The request is for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.
