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
Libreville, Gabon. 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-99-29 is scheduled for release by B/PA/AC
on July 27, 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), Tuesday, August 17,
1999. Firms interested in receiving a copy of the RFQ must request such
receipt in writing to the Contracting Officer, Mr. Lesley D. Isaac Jr.,
via facsimile at (202) 205-1921 or E-mail at lisaac@IBB.gov. All
written requests for copies of the RFQ must be received by B/PA/AC by
July 27, 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
