- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a sole source purchase order against the GSA multiple award schedules and is not a request for competitive proposals. The Department of Commerce/NOAA/NOAA Fisheries, Office of Management & Budget, has a requirement for credit reports for commercial loan applicants (business entities only) that in addition to credit histories contain lien filing records. �The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) requires federal lenders to report loans to business entities using a DUNS number which is the borrower specific number provided by Dun and Bradstreet in their reports. Duns & Bradstreet are uniquely qualified as DUNS numbers are not provided in other credit reports as well as they are able to combine credit information, public records and business status as well as able to create records for new businesses. The Office of Management & Budget intends to issue a sole source, firm-fixed price award to Duns & Bradstreet, Inc., Reston, VA for a base year plus 4 option years. The award will be made using other than full and open competition procedures. Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, and Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(2). The associated North America Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 561450 and the business size standard is $15.0M. This is a simplified acquisition with an estimated value of less than $150,000 total base and all options. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes or proposals and no solicitation will be issued. However, firms that believe they can provide the items as described that fully meets the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this notice.

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. �Information can be sent to Suzanne Johnston at Suzanne.Johnston@noaa.gov. Telephone or facsimile requests will NOT be accepted. This procurement will be prepared in accordance with FAR Part 13, using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.�For any questions concerning this Notice of Intent, please direct correspondence to Suzanne Johnston at Suzanne.Johnston@noaa.gov.
