- Description
- NASA/GSFC has a requirement for a continued lease of two Zayo Group (formerly FiberGate Inc) provided, managed and maintained pairs of SMF-28 optical fiber between UMCP, College Park MD and GSFC, Greenbelt MD. Particular features of the service-provided fibers are a maximum intermediate reach 10db optical power loss fiber length, i.e. about 10 miles, carrying up to 100Gbps in each of up to 44 ITU - compliant channels, and demarc in specific buildings at both UMCP and GSFC. NASA/GSFC intends to purchase the items from Zayo Group. Using prior research as a reference point, it appears to NASA/GSFC that only Zayo Group has the necessary rights of way licenses from the State of Maryland, Prince George's County, and I-295 US Park Services to deploy fibers in a pathway crossing I-295 that could meet NASA/GSFC's requirements. Therefore, NASA/GSFC believes that Zayo Group is the only company capable of doing this work. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on March, 1, 2013. Such capabilities/qualifications 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 compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
