Description
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS) intends to award a sole source contract to Minelight Solutions, LLC. Minelight Solutions, LLC has unique knowledge pertaining to the interdependencies among the USDA REE agencies and desired outcomes related to the development and execution of Service Level Agreements (SLA's). A high risk period of assimilation would be required because the proposed work is related to and dependent upon previously completed work. The impact of trying to bring on a different vendor at this stage would quite likely result in redundancies and significant project delays and possibly could result in project failure. This work is a logical follow on task to a previous Minelight Solutions, LLC contract. The work performed under that contract covered the same set of needs and carried a very similar statement of work to that of the proposed contract. Continuing with aggressive development schedules and preserving continuity of work are critical factors essential to operational and project work and to meeting ARS critical goals. The estimated dollar value of this action is not expected to exceed $820,000.00 The NAICS Code for this requirement is 541611 - Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Authority for this sole source procurement is under as implemented in FAR 8.405-6 the order must be issued on a sole-source basis. In the interest of economy and efficiency, the new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule Order. The original order was placed in accordance with the applicable Federal Supply Schedule ordering procedures. This notice is not a request for competitive quotations. No solicitation document is available and telephone requests will not be honored. Any firm that believes it can provide the services listed above may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination not to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. The Point of Contact for this action is Mr. James Mills and any response must be emailed to James.Mills@ars.usda.gov. Verbal responses are not acceptable and will not be considered. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement no later than August 17, 2014.
