- Description
- DESCRIPTION: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Art Guild Inc, located in West Deptford, NJ, under Other Than Full and Open Competition by the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements, for the purpose of acquiring wayfinding signs. The wayfinding signs are made of anodized aluminum panels. Annodizing is the chemical process that must be calibrated to ensure a match between batches. Art Guild is the only supplier who can reliably ensure that the new batch of signs will closely match the signs NIST already has installed. It is critical that all signs have the same color for both the anodized panel background and the vinyl lettering and fonts to be used. In addition, Art Guild as manufacturer of existing wayfinding signs currently installed at NIST, has the supplies that match in color and thickness to be able to duplicate and create the graphic overlays. A purchase order to acquire services will be negotiated and issued on or about September 29, 2014. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. Inquiries will only be accepted via e-mail to janice.moten@nist.gov. The government will consider responses received by 9:00AM, EST, 29 Sep 2014. Written responses to this synopsis shall contain sufficient documentation to establish a bona fide capability to fulfill the requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement 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 in the future. This Notice of Intent is not a Request for Quotation (RFQ) nor is it a request for competition. No telephone requests will be honored. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 541490 and the size standard is 7.0 mil.
