- Description
- The U.S. EPA, National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory (NVFEL) located in Ann Arbor, Michigan intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO), to gain access to a study on a review of fuel availability required by Regulation 14.8 of Annex VI to the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1. This requirement will utilize FAR Parts 12 and 13, Commercial and Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This requirement will provide EPA the following: the ability to discuss the work being performed, review the report generated by the study, and provide comments; and provide access to the study ¿s final report and the resulting data it generates. The government requires a contractor that that possesses the unique capability of conducting this fuel availability study. The data generated from the study is crucial to EPA ¿s missions to reduce emissions from commercial marine vessels in the U.S. The United Nations International Maritime Organization is the only known source able to satisfy this requirement for the EPA. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION. However, any firm believing itself capable of providing this type of measurement system may submit technical documentation to establish their capability. Such documentation must be submitted to the Contracting Officer within 15 calendar days of electronic posting of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses received will normally be considered 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 or to proceed on a sole source basis. Documentation should be submitted in writing to Angela Lower through email. Telephone responses will not be honored.
