- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source contract and is not a request for competitive proposals. The statutory authority for this sole-source procurment is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as prescribed by FAR 6.302-1. The Mission Installation and Contracting Commmand-Fort Gordon(MICC) intends to issue a sole-source, firm-fixed price, purchase order to Evident Inc., for a quantity of 250/each for Alpha/Bravo Tactical Combat Kit with Digital Camera. Evident Crime Scene Products Inc is the sole source manufacturer and distrubtor of these products. The Alpha/Bravo Tactical Combat Forensic Kit with Digital Camera features and exclusive proprietary tactical pouch which provides access to fingerprint development and material collection supplies. No avialable alternative meets the required specificiations for US Criminal Laboratory (USACIL) mission and validation. Other Tactical Forensic Combat Kits with cameras are not compatible for use with the validated hardware currently used by USACIL for forensic DNA science. The detrimental effect of employing another vendor's solutions is a significant cost increase for development and implementation of a new product. The Department of Defenese has already invested in the employment, testing and validation of equipment which use these kits. These kits are required to support United States Criminal Investation Laboratory. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS and a solicitation will not be issued. Interested concerns must show clear and convincing evidence that competition of this requirement would be advantageous to the Government, that this kit is not proprietary to Evident, and you may be considered for the next requirement. If no affirmative written responses are received by 11:00 a.m on 10 February 2014, an award will be made without further notice. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the Government. Contracting Office Address: MICC - Fort Gordon, Directorate of Contracting, 419 B Street, Bldg 29718, 3rd Floor, Fort Gordon, GA 30905-5719 Point of Contact(s): Justin Speering, 706-791-1833, justin.a.speering.civ@mail.mil
