Description
Sole Source Memo Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Purchase Order to 1105 Media Inc. for Federal Employees News Digest (FEND) Subscription. THIS IS A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT, NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), Office of Acquisition Management (OAM), Research Triangle Park Procurement Operations Division (RTPPOD) intends to award a sole source purchase order to 1105 Media Inc. in accordance with FAR 6.302 ¿1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This sole source procurement is for a subscription to the Federal Employees News Digest (FEND). FEND is a weekly newsletter that is streamed to up to 3000 EPA employees via the MyWorkplace website and delivered through the Desktop Library. The service provides Agency staff and management with the most up to date information on issues impacting the federal service. This service is imperative to civil servants and is relied upon for accurate and informative reporting. Failure to complete this purchase order would disrupt EPA's ability to attain accurate information concerning issues impacting the federal workforce as applied by congress and other government and non-government entities. This service is an on-line subscription to the Federal Employees News Digest (FEND) and will provide access to their exclusive weekly on-line publication via the Internet to four umbrella EPA Internet Protocol (IP) addresses that provide access to all Agency staff and on-site contractors. The EPA intends to award a base year and four (4), one (1) year options for these services in order to minimize re-procurement of this ongoing requirement. 1105 Media Inc. is the sole provider of the Federal Employees News Digest (FEND). Selecting a publisher or distributor other than 1105 Media Inc. would not be possible. FEND is the publisher and the only source that can deliver the electronic version. At this time, 1105 Media Inc. has not released the rights for the electronic submission of its resources to any other publisher or distributor. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) IS AVAILABLE. No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice. Notwithstanding, any firm who believes it is capable of meeting EPA's requirement as stated herein (or equivalent/adequate substitution) may submit a response, which if received no later than 3:00 pm ET, March 11, 2016, will be considered. All questions and/or responses must be directed to Christopher Davis via email to davis.chrisrtopher@epa.gov. No telephone inquiries will be accepted. The point of contact for this procurement is Christopher Davis, Contracting Officer, at davis.chrisrtopher@epa.gov.
