- Description
- NASA/LARC has a requirement for annual maintenance agreements for two 3D Systems machines and their software. NASA/LARC intends to purchase the items from 3D Systems, seeing as they are the original manufacturer of the equipment and the only authorized provider of the updates to the machines. Selecting another vendor could risk voiding the machines' warranties. It would take substantial duplication of resources and time for another source to provide the required maintenance agreements, and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered through competition. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12 and the Simplified Acquisition Procedures set forth in FAR Part 13. 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 01/20/2014.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/p ub_library/Omb.html.
