Description

Notice of the Government's Intent to Award a Sole-Source Contract. Notice of the Government's Intent to Award a Sole-Source Contract. The Coast Guard Command, Control, Communications, and Information Technology Service Center (C4IT SC) Procurement and Contracting Organization, in support of the Coast Guard Operations Systems Center (OSC), intends to award a sole source, fixed-priced contract with IHS Global LTD, for a base period of one year, and three one-year option periods, for a total performance period of four years, if all options are exercised. The period of performance of the base period will be 01 January 2014 - 31 December 2014. The contract will be for non-personal Automated Mutual Assistance Vessel Rescue (AMVER) Support Services in Kearneysville, West Virginia. The purpose of the contract, if executed, will be to ensure the continuity of mission critical Shipping Data Information and Vessel Characteristics for the AMVER system for the U.S. Coast Guard currently being performed on contract HSCGG3-10-P-PWV027. The C4IT SC Procurement and Contracting Organization intends to negotiate this contract on a sole source basis with IHS Global LTD, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR A COMPETITIVE QUOTE. Competing this requirement and awarding to any other entity would result in substantial delays and disruption of several key projects already in progress and would also increase the overall cost to the government. Any response to this notice must be submitted in writing to the Government and show clear and convincing evidence that another source is capable of meeting the Government's requirements and that competition of the requirement would be advantageous to the Government. If no written responses are received at least fifteen (15) days after the publication of this response, the extension will be awarded without further notice. Questions and comments pertaining to this procurement shall be emailed to Craig.E.Anderson@uscg.mil.
