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(a)(1), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. Special Operations Command Central (SOCCENT), 4115 S. Boundary Blvd., MacDill AFB, FL 33621, requires the purchase of IntuView Document Exploitation Software, Suport and Training. The 6th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Strategic Solutions Unlimited, Inc, 128 Maxwell St, Fayetteville, NC, 28306-2558. Interested parties may e-mail Joyce Wright at joyce.wright@macdill.af.mil or fax 813-828-5111, no later than Monday, 21 September 2009, 9:00 a.m. EST. 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 by Monday, 21 September 2009, 9:00 a.m. EST 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 CONTRACTOR'S UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS OR NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRES THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED ABOVE (APPLICABILITY OF AUTHORITY) SOCCENT and its war fighting components currently do not have the capability to rapidly associate and process large volumes of data collected from combat forces, during sensitive site exploitation. At present the only way the information can be processed is through manual means, a time sensitive process that does not allow for rapid retargeting or pattern of life/target development. SOCCENT requires integrated, multi-engine decision-support software that will provide for real-time exploitation of Arabic language documents. This software will be able to provide a gist of each document, to include at a minimum, a characterization, prioritization of threat level, ideological or religious stream, analyses of the significance of religious terms with terrorist ramifications, and any person, organization, or group identification from collected documents in multiple digital formats. Strategic Solutions Unlimited (SSU), Inc is the only company which can provide software of this unique type and thus this purchase is mission essential to enhance the capabilities of Special Operation Forces operations. A sources sought was posted on FBO on 21 August 2009 to seek other sources. There were no responses from industry by the submitted due date of 28 August 2009.
