- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to award on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Nth Degree Inc. 2675 Breckingridge Blvd, Suite 200, Duluth, GA 30096-08931 to procure Booth Space # 108 for 10x20 Exhibitor Booth Space at the RSA Conference 24-28 February 2014 for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)Division 77, Information Technology Laboratory, located in Gaithersburg, MD. The resulting purchase order will be for a period of 24-28 February 2014 for four (4) days. The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence has received all the pre-determined benefits as outlined prior to attending the 2013 RSA Conference. Since our entire leadership and management team was able to attend, the NCCoE markedly expanded its public perception and, consequently, cultivated key relationships with peer-to-peer executives at companies and government agencies. We used these initial relationships to foster material strategic partnerships that have evolved into NCEP partnerships and collaboration arrangements. Moreover, our attendance at RSA offered our leadership team to speak on panels that reinforced NIST's position as a technical thought leader and policy advisor. With the NCCoE's emerging role in cybersecurity, it is imperative that the NCCoE and NIST continue their involvement in the RSA Conference. The Conference stands as the world's premier information security and cryptography conference and grants one of only a few opportunities each year for our technical and leadership teams to engage and collaborate with private, public, and international stakeholders who have a vested interest in improving cybersecurity. Background Information - NIST has attended the RSA Conference every year since 1995 and made it a strategic priority to integrate the NCCoE into both the 2013 and future events. Each conference has extended NIST, and now NCCoE, an opportunity to broaden and deepen its reputation, contribution, and capabilities. The NAICS Code is 561920 with a size standard of $7.0 million. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for quotations. However, responses received by 26 August 2013, 12:00pm, EST will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
