- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c) (1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The Reference Number is F1MTGT3172A001. The 628th Contracting Squadron, 101 E. Hill Blvd., Joint Base Charleston, intents to award a sole source contract to purchase parts for the existing CET Color X-Press 500 5X Spectra Printer. The 628th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Advantage Sign Supply, Inc., 3939 N Greenbrook SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49512-5328. Market research was performed and information gathered in determining this company to be the only source for this requirement. In accordance with (IAW) FAR Part 5.207(c) (15) (ii), the proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(b) (ii). This notice of intent to award is not a request for competitive proposals; however responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The justification for the sole source requirements as follows: In accordance with FAR 6.303-2: (1) Agency and Activity: 628 Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Charleston, SC; Naval Consolidated Brig (2) Nature of action being approved: Sole source acquisition. (3) The purpose of this acquisition is to purchase parts for the existing CET Color X-Press 500 5X Spectra Printer. (4) Justification Rationale: IAW FAR 6.302-1(a) (2) One source is capable of providing due to no other company nor authorized providers are authorized to work on this system.

(6) Description of Solicitation Efforts: GSA Advantage and System for Award Management (SAM) were queried for sources as well as CET the manufacturer to discover authorized dealers able to provide the parts. (7) The contracting officer has determined that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable based upon comparison of similar services from GSA schedules and other open market sources. (8) Description of market research: A search of GSA schedules and open market sources revealed that no alternative source or supplier able to satisfy this specific requirement to provide parts to the existing CET Color X-Press 500 5X Spectra Printer. (9) Other supporting facts: Since CET is the manufacturer of the Spectra Printer, they authorize on Advantage Sign Supply as an authorized distributer; there are no other sources capable of providing the requirement. (10) Interested Sources: Due to the estimated value of this acquisition and IAW FAR 5.101(a) (2), a notice of intent to award sole source shall not be posted. (11) Actions to prevent barriers that may lead to restricted consideration in the future: Procure, (at the end of the current machine's life cycle), a non-proprietary follow-on item.
