- Description
- The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC) intends to solicit on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 to Michael South, 3881 NW Sugarhill Avenue, Jensen Beach, Florida 36957. This procurement is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) - only one responsible source and no other services will satisfy agency requirements. Michael South is the only known source capable of meeting the Governments requirements due to specific knowledge, skills and judgement required to conduct the proposed research. The research is a continual long-term mangrove-fish research project in which Mr. South possesses the knowledge, skills and judgement required to conduct the proposed research and he has detailed familiarity with (1.) the specific shorelines where research is planned, which can be very difficult to access (and depart from) without an intimate knowledge of how bathymetry and tidal changes combine to affect water depth; and (2.) our previous fish survey methods and protocols, scientific and safety requirements and proper operation of our costly/sensitive water quality instrumentation. Mr. South has been aiding our effort to quantify the density and diversity of these fish assemblages for over ten years. Interested organizations may submit their company name, address, point of contact, telephone number, Duns Number, business size, capabilities and qualification statement to perform the effort in an email to the identified point of contact not later than 3:00 pm on 2 September 2009. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposal effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. NAICS Code is 541690. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. NO RFP will be issued based upon this Notice of Intent. Interested parties may submit any information for consideration by the Government to Elizabeth. Perez@noaa.gov with solicitation number referenced in the subject line.
