- Description
- 1.� PURPOSE Based on the market research the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives (ATF) has conducted, it has found �only one responsible source, and no other services will satisfy agency requirements�.� As such, it intends to issue a firm-fixed price, SOLE-SOURCE award with a base year and four (4) option years in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 for airline-ticketing information, specifically ticketed data, not reservations data.� POTENTIAL sources/vendors with the capability to satisfy/fulfill ATF�s requirement shall respond to this Notice with clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government.� Based on the responses to this Notice, the Government will have the sole discretion in determining whether to compete this requirement.� This Notice does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service; therefore, the Government will not pay for any information or reimburse vendors for any cost connected with this Notice.� Instead, the responding vendor will be solely responsible for all costs associated with this Notice.� Not responding to this RFI will not preclude participation in any future contract/order/agreement, if issued.� If a solicitation is released, then it will be issued through a�government point�of entry (i.e., SAM, eBuy, SEWP, etc.); therefore, vendors should�monitor such�sites for additional information pertaining to this requirement.� ATF will not accept any unsolicited offers/quotations/bids/proposals related to this Notice since this is neither a solicitation nor a promise to issue a solicitation for said services in the future.� 2.� ORGANIZATIONAL BACKGROUND ATF�is a highly-decentralized, law-enforcement (LE) organization with unique responsibilities and is dedicated to preventing terrorism, reducing violent crime, and protecting the public from crimes involving firearms, explosives, arson, and the diversion of alcohol and tobacco products.� ATF is composed of 25 Field Division (FD) offices and approximately 250 field and satellite offices across the continental United States (U.S.), Hawaii and Alaska.� It enforces Federal laws and regulations relating to alcohol, tobacco, firearms, explosives, and arson and accomplishes its mission by working directly and in cooperation with other government agencies. One (1) of ATF�s Directorates manages and disseminates timely, accurate, and focused intelligence through the collection and analysis of information that enhances decision-making for all Bureau customers and personnel, in support of ATF�s mission.� Its objective is to assist with/facilitate operations coordination, information sharing and situational awareness through professional relationships and strategic partnership with several key Federal LE organizations/agencies.� This alliance helps to foster cooperation and assistance as the liaison section embodies ATF�s mission objectives, which are vital for increased public safety. 3.� SCOPE The contractor shall provide 24/7 access to its web-based, database/platform/system for up to 250 searches per year and monitoring services for up to three (3) searches for the same duration. �The contractor shall also provide help-desk assistance either by phone or email.� ATF requires:�� access via a website query;� access to contractor�s helpdesk during normal work hours, at least 40 hours per week; search results within 48 hours; monitoring results daily, within 15 minutes to several hours, depending on the commonality of the name; and� certain records to contain at least 39 months of travel information. Said database must:�� update daily and query domestic air travel (including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands & American Samoa) to determine if an individual has traveled or will travel;� provide the name, airline, date of travel, location of travel, airline records locator, & purchase and purchaser information; allow searches by true name as on state- or government-issued identification (ID), ID #, airline and/or credit card #; and � retain searches in the system for at least 45 days. 4.� INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESPONDING TO THIS NOTICE Potential sources/vendors with the capability to satisfy/fulfill ATF�s requirement shall:�� respond to this Special Notice�via www.SAM.gov by the�Close Date and Time of this Notice with a written response demonstrating their capability; complete and return�the attached Excel file with their response; and limit any proprietary information and clearly mark and separate such information to aid the Government.� If there�s an issue with uploading supporting documentation via SAM, then said sources/vendors shall send the required Excel file via email to Sheray.Millhouse@ATF.gov.� No other forms of communication will be accepted or honored for this requirement. Since ALL�submissions become the property of the Government, they will not be returned.
