- Description
- Sole Source Posting ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Xera GIS of Bishop, California for assisting the National Marine Fisheries in upgrading the software used for the yearly aerial surveys of arctic marine mammals. ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Northwest Regional National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) yearly requirement for conducting aerial surveys of arctic marine mammals. Xera GIS collaborated with NMFS researchers to assist in designing the custom software known as the BWASP Survey Tool, as well as the ASAMM Survey, and wrote the software in its entirety. If another company were used, the current invested time and funding would be lost and duplicate services and research investments would result with a loss of additional duplicate costs and the mission period of performance would not be met. The period of performance is from December 1, 2016 through November 30, 2017. ***This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can fully meet the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Such documentation will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to conduct a competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
