The proposed contract action is for supplies, which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

This notice of intent to purchase supplies from only one source is not a request for proposals; however interested persons may submit their capability to respond to this requirement to the point of contact listed below by September 21, 2012. 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.
