- Notice of Intent for Procuring Open Market Items for an Existing GSA Order The Department of Interior (DOI), Interior Business Center (IBC), Acquisition Services Directorate (AQD), on behalf of the Department of the Interior, Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) intends to modify an existing Task Order that was awarded against a GSA Schedule Contract to add Open Market items under the authority of FAR Part 13.106-1(b), Soliciting from a Single Source. The existing Task Order with Comm-Works/Fortan, LLC (Comm-Works) provides maintenance and support for DOIs Integrated Digital Voice Communication (IDVC) system. The Open Market items are to provide router and data switch maintenance for the period of June 1, 2014 through November 30, 2014. This requirement is within the scope of the current Task Order; however the router and data switch maintenance is not currently under the GSA Schedule Contract. Previously, these Open Market items had been provided under GSA Schedule, but these items were inadvertently omitted when the GSA Schedule was renewed. As a result, in order for Comm-Works to provide the maintenance and support for DOIs IDVC system, the existing Task Order must be modified to add the router and data switch maintenance portion as Open Market Items. The majority of the overall requirement is under the GSA Schedule Contract, but this small portion for router and data switch maintenance is Open Market Item. Competition is not available because of the critical nature of the systems supported by this task order, the complexity of the overall operation, and the fact that adding another vendor to this requirement would void existing maintenance agreements. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement by 12:00 PM (Noon) Eastern Time on May 6, 2014 to Adam Graham at Adam_Graham@ibc.doi.gov AND Geraldine Lyons at Geraldine_Lyons@ibc.doi.gov. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. A Request for Quotation (RFQ) package is not available. The NAICS code for this requirement is 334210, Data Communications Equipment, which is a majority of the services under the existing GSA Task Order under which these Open Market Items will be added. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. AQD will not be responsible for any costs incurred by an interested party responding to this notice. This notice in no way obligates the Government to modify the existing GSA Task Order or award a Purchase Order for the Open Market Items. Questions or comments pertaining to this notice of intent may be e-mailed to the following individuals: Adam Graham at adam_graham@ibc.doi.gov and Geraldine Lyons at Geraldine_Lyons@ibc.doi.gov.
