The requirement is to develop technical considerations and specifications for tailing dams to update guidelines for dam safety nationwide.� This upgrade will allow FEMA/FIMA�s National Dam Safety Program (NDSP) to support their mission of increasing dam safety nationwide. The services will provide consistent national dam safety technical guidelines for state and federal regulators, designer, and mine owner and operators, reduce the risk of failure of tailings dams by filling in gaps in the Federal Guidelines for Dam Safety where respective publications do not adequately address tailings dams and meet the objectives of the Strategic Plan for the National Dam Safety Program.� The No portion of this work can be segregated to allow for competition at this time. The proposed contract is based upon the exclusion found at Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 and 41 United States Code 3304(a)(1), which authorizes other than full and open competition when there is only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation exists for this requirement.� However, parties interested in responding to this notice shall submit technical data sufficient to determine capability to provide the same services.� All capability statements received within 15 days after publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government.� A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The related NAICS Codes are 541690 - Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services. Capability statements shall be submitted by email only as a MS Word or Adobe PDF attachment to Carolyn Sulla at carolyn.sulla@associates.fema.dhs.gov and William Sanfilippo at william.sanfilippo@fema.dhs.gov.� Statements are due by August 24, 2020; 5:00PM (local time of issuing Office). �No phone calls will be accepted. Disclosure:� Please note that Garud Technology Services (GTS) is providing contract specialist support for this contract action performing non-inherently Governmental functions.� GTS� blanket purchase agreement (BPA) with FEMA for acquisition support includes a limitation on future contracting and requires all staff under the BPA to sign non-disclosure agreements.
