- Description
- Limited-Sources Justification PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE PUBLISHED. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate a one-time sole source contract with Foster & Freeman USA Inc., 46030 Manekin Plaza, STE 170, Sterling, VA 20166. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. This notice will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website (www.fedbizopps.gov). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. The North American Classification System Code is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing; the size standard is 1000 employees. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a non-competitive, sole source contract to Foster & Freeman USA Inc., 46030 Manekin Plaza, STE 170, Sterling, VA 20166 for a VSC-8000. Services are being procured under FAR 13.5, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The FBI currently owns Foster & Freeman Video Spectral Comparators. The VSC-8000 manufactured and provided by Foster & Freeman has improved features that will better enable the unit examiners to identify altered and counterfeit identity documents, exploit clandestine messages, and visualize information in documents that is not visible to the naked eye. Foster & Freeman USA Incorporated is the sole manufacturer and distributor of the VSC-8000, therefore, is the only company that can meet the requirements of the FBI. See Attached Justification Based on market research conducted and contacts made with knowledgeable individuals within the government and related industry, it has been determined the FBI's requirement can only be provided by Foster & Freemen USA Incorporated as no other vendor is capable of providing the VSC-8000 that meets all of the requirements of the FBI. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement or submit proposals to this office by Monday, 8:00 am, EST, July 10, 2017, by email to the attention of Jerry Varnell, Contracting Officer, at Jerry.Varnell@ic.fbi.gov. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. Telephone requests will not be considered. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Vendors must be registered in SAM, effective July 29, 2012 to receive government contracts. The FBI uses a financial system that has a direct interface with SAM. Please ensure that your company's SAM information is updated and accurate. This includes TIN, EFT, DUNS, addresses and contact information. The EFT banking information on file in SAM will be what the FBI uses to process payment to your organization.
