- Description
- This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE for Market Research purposes only. The Government is trying to determine the availability of a certain Brand Name for an upcoming acquisition. No awards will be made from this Sources Sought Notice. No solicitation will be available at this time. However, responses to this Sources Sought Notice may be used to determine appropriate acquisition strategies for future acquisitions. The Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District intends to solicit and award a construction project. The construction projects will be solicited competitively under future separate solicitations. These projects may include a specific manufacturer, as described below, unless the results of these sources sought notification indicates otherwise. This notification serves three purposes: (1) to notify potential offerors of the Government's intent to solicit a brand name only component under future construction projects; (2) to identify potential sources that can provide the brand name only item and/or equivalent; (3) notification of the Army's intent to contract sole source for a Brand Name Only, if the market is unable to provide 'equivalent' products. The following items may be included in future solicitations as sole sources, if no sources are able to provide an equivalent system. In the event no equivalent equipment exists, the Brand Name Only justification will be issued pursuant to FAR Part 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source." A subsequent market survey will not be published in support of a Justification and Approval (J&A) for sole sourcing the resultant product(s) or system(s) in the event an equivalent product is not submitted for consideration. In such instances, the brand name or equal component will be embedded in the construction project that will be issued competitively. Only that part of the project requiring brand name components will be sole source, if no sources are able to prove an equal product. The construction projects themselves will be competitively solicited. REQUIREMENT: 1. Floor Boxes : 11" W x 11" H x 9" floor box that allows for the standard bend radius utilizing both fiber and copper cables, supports the termination of a minimum of 16 fiber and copper cables, anchors in 2' x 2' anti-static floor tiles, allows for a minimum of two (2) separate 20 Amp utility duplex electrical receptacles that can be fed by two separate power panels, contains separation between communications and electrical receptacles with steel plates and provides the ability to terminate multi-level cables entering the box from multiple directions. Submissions in responses to this sources sought notice must be submitted in writing via email to Renee McMillan-Cox at melissa.r.mcmillan-cox@usace.army.mil no later than 5 P.M. EST on 24 March 2015. This is a market survey and notification of intent only. This is not a request to respond to a solicitation. This project will be solicited at a future date.
