- Description
- The United States Energy Information Administration (EIA), Washington D.C. 20585. This is a sole source synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is to extend task order DE-DT0005087 for one additional year of performance through January 10, 2016. The purpose of this Task Order under EIA?s EOP III Omnibus Contract is to assist with natural gas and coal survey operations. This task provides ongoing data collection, validation, and quality assurance support to produce weekly, monthly, and annual statistics covering the production, storage, and consumption of natural gas and coal. Suspension of this support would, most notably, prevent timely release of the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report, a Principal Federal Economic Indicator released each Thursday morning; EIA?s inability to provide these data would therefore significantly affect gas markets and also cause a ripple effect on other high-profile EIA data, analytic, and forecasting programs that rely on these inputs. These services are non-severable in nature due to the ongoing management, process, and consistency of product content, design, and development at EIA. It would be impractical to transfer this work to another vendor because transfer would result in significant delays in task completion and a disruption in highly critical information dissemination services that provide key data to various stakeholders, including industry, Congress, and the American people. It is critical that the resulting efforts provide uninterrupted service in fiscal year 2015. Transfer of support activities is not possible at this time due to ongoing EIA requirements. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements; 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under Primary Product/Service Code R702, Support- Management: Data Collection. The proposed source is IMG-Crown Energy Services of 5418 Seminary Road, Alexandria, VA 22311. A determination by the Government not 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 procurement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received by 3:00 pm Local (Washington D.C.) Time, Friday, January 2, 2015. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. All correspondence should be e-mailed to kyle.krzywicki@eia.gov. Only inquiries/information received by this date will be considered. Be advised that all correspondence sent via e-mail shall contain a subject line that contain s the solicitation number.
