- Description
- THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c)(1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), 7701 Tampa Point Blvd, Tampa, FL 33621, requires renewal of the Intellitactics Network SecurityManager (NSN) software licenses for maintenance and support. The 6th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Immix Technology , Inc, 8444 West Park Dr., McLean, VA 22102.. Interested parties may e-mail stephen.colton@macdill.af.mil or fax 813-828-6967, Attn: Stephen Colton, not later than Friday, 07 September, 2007; 4:00 p.m. EST. Per FAR Part 5.207-13(e) Fed Biz Ops Numbered Note 22 applies and is modified to read: 22. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within ten days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. V. DEMONSTRATION THAT THE CONTRACTORS UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS OR NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRES THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED ABOVE (APPLICABILITY OF AUTHORITY) The Intellitactics Network Security Manager (NSM) standard maintenance and support is developed by and owned by Intellitactics. Intellitactics utilizes only one distributor to sell its product. That distributor is Immix Technology. USSOCOM requires Intellitactics Network Security Manager (NSM) support to keep its current NSM system operational and current to protect USSOCOM networks against cyber attack. Intellitactics has been at the headquarters and all subordinate component commands and is familiar with the USSOCOM enterprise architecture. As the sole Intellitactics distributor, Immix Technology is the only company who can provide expert technical advice and support for this software. Without this service, USSOCOM will not be able to effectively monitor its networks, against cyber attacks, that are being used to support the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). To purchase comparable software from any source other than Intellitactics would result in the expenditure of more than $2 million that has already been invested in Intellitactics. These costs, outlined below, include travel, labor and training and amount to approximately $2,081,640.00. These costs are necessary in order to test, integrate and install Intellitactics, as well as gain a level of operational acceptance by the Government for contractors and Government employees. In summary, to purchase comparable software from another vendor would result in substantial duplication of costs not expected to be recovered through full and open competition.
