- Description
- Serial renewal list This notice of intent is not a request for quotes and no solicitation is available. A determination not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The 42nd Contracting Squadron at Maxwell AFB, AL intends to award a sole source contract to EBSCO Industries, Inc., 5724 Hwy 280 E, Birmingham, AL 35242-6818 for the purchase of numerous serial subscriptions (see Attachment 1). EBSCO Industries Inc. is the current vendor providing subscriptions to approximately 593 serial subscriptions under contract FA3300-11-P-0087. EBSCO currently fulfills 100% of our existing subscriptions. Previous serials contracts for MSFRIC have used the Library of Congress FEDLINK program BOAs to identify vendors capable of meeting our requirements for print and electronic subscriptions. Use of the FEDLINK program is authorized in the Library of Congress' Fiscal Operations Improvement Act, P.L. 106-481, section 103 and sections 854(c)(2) of the Ronald W. Reagan National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005. On 12 June 2015, FEDLINK notified their members that contracts would not be awarded before the end of the fiscal year and they would be issuing bridge contracts. On 15 July 2015, FEDLINK notified their members that they would not have bridge contracts in place before the end of FY15. With the delay in FEDLINK notifying us that no FEDLINK BOAs will be in place, it will not be possible to compete and award a new serials contract before FY16. This is a sole source procurement under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This will be a firm-fixed price contract for 1 (one) base year. If there are any other businesses that can provide the specified services, they must respond to this notice before 8/10/15 at 4:00pm Central Standard Time (CST). If no responses are received by the above referenced date/time a sole source contract will be awarded to EBSCO Industries, Inc. Contract award is subject to the availability of funds. The Points of Contact (POCs) for this notice are Corey Hooper, who can be contacted at email: corey.hooper@us.af.mil or Mark Restad at email mark.restad.1@us.af.mil. Email is the preferred method of response.
