- Description
- J&A Air Force Materiel Command, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson AFB OH, intends to negotiate a sole source Firm-Fixed-Price contract for Air Force Research Laboratory Science & Technology Operations (AFRL S&T Ops) bridge effort in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 15.2, as supplemented with additional information in this notice. The contract will be awarded to Array Information Technology, Inc. Market research was previously conducted and it has been determined that this is a sole source requirement IAW FAR 6.302-1. This is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation is available. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Interested sources must respond in writing with clear and convincing evidence to support their ability to provide the required supplies/services within three (3) days of this publication. A determination by the Government not to compete this action based on responses received is solely within the discretion of the Government. Authority: 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), Justification: Services may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. Market research was conducted with only one respondent able to meet the government's needs: Array Information Technology, Inc. Lt Col Kenneth L. Decker, AFLCMC/AQ, Wright-Patterson AFB OH, 45433, has been appointed as Ombudsman to hear concerns from offerors, or potential offerors, during the proposal development. The purpose of the Ombudsman is to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. Existence of the Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of the program director or the contracting officer. Accordingly, the Ombudsman does not participate in the preparation of solicitations, the evaluation of proposals or the source selection process and, therefore, for routine matters on individual solicitations, please contact the buyer at the telephone number listed herein. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. Any questions regarding this acquisition should be directed to the Contract Specialist, Jessica P. Wallace at (937) 656-7522 or e-mail: jessica.wallace.8@us.af.mil. Should you desire to contact the Ombudsman, Lt Col Kenneth L. Decker, can be reached at (937) 255-5512, e-mail: Kenneth.Decker.1@us.af.mil.
