- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE The Mission and Installation Contracting Command, Fort Carson, Colorado intends to negotiate a sole source purchase order with Notemeal Inc, 1H Street PL Boston, Massachusetts 02127 for the purchase of Notemeal performance nutrition online platform with the connected mobile application for use by performance dietitians and Soldiers on-site and in austere environments with Dining Facility (DFAC) ordering capabilities. Notemeal, Inc is the only product that meets the Government's requirements in regard to meal planning, recipe development, food logging, nutrient analysis, integration with existing technology, and offering direct communication between the end-users and performance dietitians.� Notemeal is the only nutrition platform that offers an open Application Programming Interface (API) with athlete management systems to sync data and import tools built for integrating data (e.g., Inbody, interchangeable Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Systems (iDXA[HETMCU1]�), etc.).� Notemeal's API has the ability to track time spent doing various functions such reading dietitians notes. In comparison, other platforms only track when an individual logs-in, but their activities while logged-in. Notemeal is also the only auto-adjusting meal planning tool for individuals and groups, accommodating personal food preferences, individual anthropometrics, food allergies, and the ability to interface with the current Dining Facility (DFAC) menu programs.� Moreover, Notemeal is the only platform for converting an end-user food log to a custom meal plan.� Lastly, Notemeal is the only platform that allows for engagement tracking, mobile meal ordering, the ability to view food logs captured via take-out menu orders and the ability to transfer Soldier accounts to follow-on units.� Although several platforms offer varying levels of these capabilities, only Notemeal has the ability to do all of them in one platform.� . This is sole source procurement using the Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The statutory authority for the sole source procurement is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). This notice is not a request for competitive quotes, however; any firm that believes it can meet the requirements may give written notification to the Contracting Officer by 12:00 pm (MST) March 18, 2021.� Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the requirements listed below.� Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion for the Government.� If no responses are received, the Government will proceed with the sole source negotiation with Warehouse Options, Inc. Requirements: Purchase of Nutrional Software, from Notemeal, Inc. Responses are due by 12:00 pm (MST) March 18, 2021.� Responses shall be submitted via e-mail to the following address: Lilian.n.rodriguez2.civ@mail.mil.� Telephone requests or inquiries will not be accepted.��
