- Description
- Sole Source Justification and Approval The USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station intends to award a sole source delivery order against FSS GS-23F-0030S to D J Case & Associates, Inc. (DUNS = 968658435) under authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 13.106(b)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.) The proposed contractor possesses unique qualifications to continue development of an interactive adaptation planning tool web module. The original services were awarded under AG-63PX-D-14-0026. The current tool was developed for forests, wherein the continuation of the requirement is a new component to create a duplicate tool to focus on agriculture. The Contracting Officer has determined that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable. This procurement is to further develop an online, interactive tool based upon the Adaptation Workbook in the document Forest Adaptation Resources (FAR): Climate Change Tools and Approaches for Land Managers (GTR NRS-87; www.nrs.fs.fed.us/pubs/40543) and the associated guidebook Adaptation Resources for Agriculture (AAR): Responding to Climate Variability and Change in the Midwest and Northeast, which is currently in press through the USDA Climate Hubs. The contractor is a Small Business. The NAICS Code for this project is 541511 with a size standard of $27.5 Million. This notice is neither a request for a competitive proposal nor a solicitation for offerors. A determination by the Government to not compete this requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. This notice should not be construed as a commitment by the Government. If your company can provide the required services, please provide a capability package to the Contracting Officer by the response date of 20 September 2016.
