- Description
- Redacted J&A BOM Notice to Offeror(s)/Supplier(s): Funds are not presently available for this effort. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation, either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offeror for any costs. NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson AFB OH, intends to negotiate a sole source Firm-Fixed Price contract for a COMSOL software license to be used by the Air Force Research Labs (AFRL), also housed at Wright-Patterson, in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 15.2, as supplemented with additional information in this notice. The contract will be awarded to COMSOL, Inc. Market research was previously conducted and it has been determined that this is a sole source requirement IAW FAR 6.302-1 and FAR 13.106-1(b). 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 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: Supplies required are available from only one or a limited number of responsible sources and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Market research was conducted with only one respondent able to meet the government's needs. Lt Col Peter Sandness 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, Auston Hensley, at (937) 255-3374 or e-mail: auston.hensley@us.af.mil Should you desire to contact the Ombudsman, he can be reached at e-mail: peter.sandness@us.af.mil.
