Description

In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) intends to award a purchase order, on a sole source basis, to IMPLAN Group LLC. for the purchase of NETL�s IMPLAN 2018 National Data Package software renewal through the period of performance of September 30, 2023.� This is considered a sole source to IMPLAN Group LLC. because, to the best of the NETL�s knowledge and based on market research conducted, IMPLAN Group LLC. is the only known source that can provide this renewal software.� NETL utilizes this software to perform impact assessments and replacing this software with another brand would have broad sweeping consequences with significant costs to NETL including, but not limited to, underlying data structures and infrastructure changes may be needed; migration of data to a new tool/structure would need to be planned and could result in a loss of service and further exploitation; users may need additional training on the new product; technical resources to support the new tool may be required; additional hardware may be needed; and that the decommission of the current product would be costly. No known potential alternate sources exist which could satisfy NETL�s requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for quote/proposal. Any interested party that believes it is capable of meeting the NETL requirement described herein may identify themselves and must provide evidence of their capability to fulfill the requirement being requested by 4:00 PM ET on September 12, 2020. Responses must be submitted in writing to lora.stumpf@netl.doe.gov no later than the time and date noted above. Telephone responses and requests will not be received. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement 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.
