here to contact the Contracting Officer via, gjsweetn@IBB.GOV. The U.S.
Information Agency's International Broadcasting Bureau (USIA/IBB),
Contracts and Procurement Division (B/PA/AC), has a requirement,
subject to the availability of funds, for a contractor to obtain
quantitative data on the size, composition, and media habits of the
audience for Voice of America (VOA) broadcasts in Pakistan. The
USIA/IBB anticipates awarding a firm-fixed-price contract (purchase
order), utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures, as specified in
the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Part 13, to the responsible
quoter (offeror) whose price quotation conforming to a forthcoming RFQ
is most advantageous to the USIA/IBB, based on the quoter's: (a)
Technical Capabilities/Experience in conducting audience surveys as
outlined in the forthcoming RFQ for this procurement; and (b) Price
quotation. Of these two selection criteria, the Technical
Capabilities/Experience criterion is significantly dominant over the
Price criterion. Request for Quotation (RFQ) No. B/PA-99-28 is
scheduled for release by B/PA/AC on July 13, 1999. Responses to the
forthcoming RFQ (i.e., Technical Capabilities/Experience information,
and Price quotation) are due to B/PA/AC by the close of business (5
p.m. EST), Friday, August 6, 1999. Firms interested in receiving a copy
of the RFQ must request such receipt in writing to the Contracting
Officer, Ms. Gloria Sweetney, via facsimile at (202) 205-1921 or E-mail
at gjsweetn@IBB.gov. All written requests for copies of the RFQ must be
received by B/PA/AC by July 13, 1999; and such requests shall include
the RFQ number, the requestor's company name, the name of the company's
point-of-contact (POC), the company's mailing address, and the POC's
telephone and facsimile numbers. No telephone requests for this RFQ
will be accepted by B/PA/AC. The Contracting Officer has found and
determined that this proposed work is appropriate for an "unrestricted"
procurement, pursuant to FAR Subpart 19.502 (Setting Aside
Acquisitions). All responsible sources may request a copy of the
forthcoming RFQ upon its release by USIA/IBB. This Notice is not an
IFB, RFP, or RFQ. Posted 06/28/99 (W-SN347718). (0179) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0015 19990630\B-0003.SOL)
