- Description
- Description: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE Air Force Materiel Command, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Wright-Patterson AFB OH, intends to negotiate a sole source Firm-Fixed Price contract for the renewal of AgilQuest Corporation�s Tango Reserve meeting reservation tool in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 13.5, as supplemented with additional information in this notice. The contract will be awarded to AgilQuest, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tango Analytics, LLC. Market research was previously conducted, and it has been determined that this is a sole source requirement IAW FAR 13.106-1(b) and DAFFARS 5313.106-1(b). This is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation is available at this time. 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/services within ten (10) 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 source and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Market research determined there are no other providers that can perform this service. Tango exclusively owns and maintains the proprietary ""Reserve"" software, uniquely positioning itself as the sole source capable of providing the necessary licensing and support services. Despite the commitment to fostering competitive procurement practices, seeking alternative providers is impractical due to the proprietary nature of the software and Tango's specialized expertise. ColTodd Dye 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, Grant Allen at e-mail: grant.allen.5@us.af.mil. Should you desire to contact the Ombudsman, Col Todd Dye can be reached at e-mail: ASCA@us.af.mil.
