Item 3 9) QTY. 1, UNIT JOB, Direct delivery to GSFC. Shipping charges, taxes and duties. Item 4 10)QTY. 1, UNIT JOB, Direct delivery to GSFC. Shipping charges, taxes and duties. Item 5 NASA/GSFC intends to purchase the items from QMC INSTRUMENTS, DEPT. OF PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY, CARDIFF, UK. QMC INSTRUMENTS is the only vendor who meets all of our requirements. The Authority is 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(1), Only One Responsible Source. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. The procurement will be processed using Simplified Acquisition Procedures set forth in FAR Part 13. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, but quotes timely received by the response date will be considered. Technical questions must be submitted in writing via email or fax by July 26, 2006, 4:30p.m. EST. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to TALAYA BROOKS, via email or fax. Email to Talaya.A.BarnettBrooks@nasa.gov or fax to 301-286-9159 no later than 4:30 p.m. local time on August 1, 2006. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
