- Description
- Justification & Approval for Sole Source The General Services Administration intends to issue a sole source contract to Flying Bridge Technology, Inc. under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 and utilize the Commercial Acquisition procedures under authority of FAR Part 12 for commercial items. Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This open market acquisitionwill be added to a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) order with the same firm and buys service support that is not yet included under the subject firm’s MAS contract. The objective of this task provides a web-based portal to inform and monitor the effects of community readiness efforts and monitor unit-based A&FRC initiatives with a focus on social support systems. AF/A1SA is responsible for providing AF-wide policy, strategic legislative agenda, resources and AFPC/DPSIA is responsible for operational guidance and training for implementation of the Community Readiness Consultant (CRC) Model. The A&FRC base-level personnel mission is to provide support services to Commanders and assist them in developing and executing policies, programs and processes to enhance individual, family and community readiness and quality of life. Flying Bridge Technologies, Inc. located in Charlotte, North Carolina will provide support to host the Communities in Blue (CIB) website, provide practice support, deliver approved changes/enhancements and monitor the use and implementation of the Support and Resiliency Inventories for AF Members and Civilian Spouses (SRI) on the web-based portal (NAICs 519130 via MAS & 541611 via open market). The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302-1. The reason is there are no known alternatives to this sole source bridge contract because Flying Bridge Technologies owns the technology, the code, and interface components and has an existing subcontracting arrangement with Bowen and Colleagues for the intellectual property rights to the report designs, and content calculations that need to be utilized with their proprietary technology. The requiring organization intends to request/require support from a contracting officer to enter a negotiation with the subject firm(s) that holds the data and intellectual property rights to secure them for the Air Force via purchase. The attached justification for Other than Full and Open Competition has been prepared in support of this acquisition. Type of Contract: A firm fixed price, definite quantity; definite delivery contract will be awarded. Period of Performance: March 30, 2011 to March 29, 2012. The clause at FAR 52.212-4, Contract terms and Conditions-Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. Interested persons may identify their interest in the requirement and capability to respond to the requirement. All responses received by 5:00 p.m., PST, 3/28/11 will be considered by the government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Inquiries will only be accepted by email.
