- Description
- Sole Source Letter- Redactd NOCA The Air Force Test Center (AFTC), Contracting Directorate, Edwards AFB, CA intends to issue a sole-source contract to G/M Business Interiors (GMBI) to design, reconfigure, inventory and clean existing Herman Miller furniture. The anticipated contract will be a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Commercial Purchase Order. GMBI is the only company capable of providing these services because it is an authorized and certified Herman Miller vendor. The stated requirements must be satisfied by a Herman Miller vendor to maintain the warranty on the existing Herman Miller products. GMBI is the only authorized and certified Herman Miller vendor in Kern County area. The statutory authority which permits other than full and open competition for this acquisition is 10 United States Code (USC) 2304(c)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(A). This authority is supported by an approved sole source letter (see attached letter). The applicable NAICS code is 238390 and the size standard, as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration, is $15,000,000.00. This notice neither constitutes a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an Invitation for Bid (IFB), nor does it restrict the Government in any way to an ultimate acquisition approach; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the Government. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL AND IS NOT TO BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. AFTC has appointed an Ombudsman to hear concerns from potential offerors relating to this acquisition. The Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of the Program Director or Contracting Officer, but communicates contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate Government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Matters of a routine or administrative nature concerning this acquisition should not be addressed to the Ombudsman but rather the Contracting Officer identified below. For any other concerns, interested parties may call the AFTC Ombudsman, AFTC Vice Commander, 1 South Rosamond Blvd, Edwards AFB, CA 93524-3784, (661) 277-2810, facsimile (661) 277-7593.
