- Description
- The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in accordance with FAR Part 15 "Contracting by Negotiation," intends to negotiate a commercial sole source firm fixed price contract (as prescribed in FAR 6.302-1) with Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B), 11710 Plaza America Dr., Suite 900, Reston, VA 20190 for business entity verification services (BEVS). D&B is the only known source that can satisfy the requirements of the Government's Air Cargo Security Program. The award will be made for services, support, and solutions to provide specific data to be used with the Air Cargo Risk Methodology to determine if companies in the Air Cargo supply chain are conducting business in accordance with TSA Guidelines, Security Directives, Security Programs, Published Rules, and any other TSA, DHS, or Federal Cargo Security guidance. The Government also requires that the solution's technological components integrate with the TSA Air Cargo Security Portfolio of systems and programs. A non-competitive contract is required because D&B currently provides solutions that allow real-time vetting of business entities in the Air Cargo supply chain. D&B also provides the proprietary Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number and other risk information for all entities being vetted, allowing single index cross-reference operations among all TSA Air Cargo applications. The period of performance for this sole-source contract will be one (1) base year and four (4) 12-month option periods. Interested vendors who may wish to seek subcontracting opportunities should contact the above named company directly. Interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement by emailing the points of contact below. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received within five days of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received as a result of this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
