Description

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Office of the Chief Information Officer, 1600 lifton Road, Atlanta, GA 30222, hereby announces its intent to issue a sole source modification to Task Order 75D301-19-F-06968 in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 to CSRA, LLC, 3170 Fairview Park Drive, Falls Church, VA 22042-4517 to accelerate the adoption of cloud platforms and improve CDC�s capabilities to support its public health mission.� The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as cited in FAR 6.302-1, ""Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements."" CSRA, LLC, is CDC�s existing vendor for CDC�s cloud ecosystem and migration efforts. The environment is complex, highly customized, and highly secured by the existing vendor. Competing this new work would result in significant added costs and delays while a new vendor is acclimitized to the CDC cloud ecosystem and requirements. CSRA�s knowledge of the ecosystem will allow for the rapid migration of critical workloads to the cloud with little interruption in application services. This expansion of work is temporary and will not extend beyond the current task order�s period of performance. All future work will be competed and available to all vendors for future actions as the delays and expense of incorporating a new vendor will be distributed over the lifetime of any follow-on actions. Responsible sources that believe they possess the expertise and capabilities identified above are encouraged to submit to the Contracting Officer within 10 days from the posting date of this notice, their written capabilities statement, proposal or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. Please forward the capability statement and/or pricing information to David Dombeck, Contracting Specialist, Reference 2013-59474, Centers for Disease Control, Procurement and Grants Office, ATTN: David Dombeck, MS: K-14, 2900 Woodcock Blvd., Atlanta, GA 30341. All vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to an award of a federal contract. The website is: www.sam.gov. The Government will review any/all capabilities statements and pricing information submitted and determine if other qualified sources do exist that could provide this requirement. Information received in response to this announcement will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. If no affirmative responses are received within 10 days, negotiations will be conducted with the Health Research, Inc., as the only source and a contract will be issued without any additional notices being posted.
