- Description
- Notice of Intent to Award-Brand Name Specific Application The National Park Service, Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division (NSNSD), intends to award a firm fixed-price purchase order to Wildlife Acoustics Inc., 970 Sunbury Rd., Concord, MA 01742-4939. The purpose of this order is for the supply and delivery of thirteen (13) SM2Bat+ ultrasonic bat recorders. Market research concluded that Wildlife Acoustics, Inc. is the only producer of ultrasonic bat detectors which meet the needs for compatibility with SonoBat Software, low power consumption, and large storage capacity. Additionally, NSNSD recently purchased a number of SM2Bat+ recorders, and has developed software and hardware accessories for these units. Procurement of non-compatible recorders will provide the best continuity and function for NSNSD, which has already invested time and resources into the operation of these units. Award to any other source at this time would result in duplication of time and cost retraining NSNSD staff and partners, and re-engineering hardware and software products that NSNSD has developed for use with the SM2Bat+ recorders. The NAICS code is 334310 and the size standard is 750; the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 (a) (1) and 6.302-1(c). The magnitude of this purchase order is estimated to be $13,000. Award shall be made on or about March 28, 2014, however the Government reserves the right to change this date. No telephone or fax inquiries will be accepted, e-mails may be submitted to the following e-mail address: stephanie_lawrence@contractor.nps.gov. This is a notice of intent and not a request for competitive proposals. No solicitation is available for this requirement. Interested parties should submit a capability statement and pricing information within fifteen calendar days of publication of this notice, to be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government to compete 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 requirement. The following FAR clauses are applicable to this award: 52.212-1, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, 52.212-5, 52.223-18, 52.232-40, 52.252-2, and 6.302-1.
