- Description
- NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has a requirement for the extension of the Telecommunications Services Delivery Order. NASA/GSFC plans to issue a modification to extend the period of performance on General Services Administration (GSA) Government-Wide Acquisition Contract(GWAC) GS11T08BJD6002 (Washington Interagency Telecommunications System-WITS 3) Delivery Order NNG14AT28D with Level 3 Communications (Level 3) for GSFC and Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Telecommunication Services. This modification will extend Delivery Order NNG14AT28D of 3 years and 6 months by (10) ten month base and (1) eight month option, thereby extending the GFSC and GISS Telecommunications Services between the existing Level 3 Delivery Order NNG14AT28D expiring January 5, 2018 and the subsequent GSA EIS Telecommunications Services Contract to be phased in no later than the May 2020 timeframe. NASA/GSFC intends to issue the modification on a sole source basis to Level 3 in accordance with 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." Level 3 provides continuity of operations between each of the three GSFC sites (Greenbelt, Wallops Flight Facility and GISS) allowing each site to serve as a backup to the other sites in the event of a service failure. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on 12/31/2017. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications ARE NOT acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
