- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC)/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), on behalf of National Environmental Satellite and Data Information Service (NESDIS)/Office of Satellite & Product Operations (OSPO)/Fairbanks Command and Data Acquisition Station (FCDAS), intends to negotiate with the contractor: Siemens Industry, Inc., 3202 International St., Fairbanks, AK� 99701, on a sole source basis under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation Subpart 13.106-1(b) Soliciting from a single source.� (1) For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. (i) Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available.� Therefore, DOC/NOAA intends to conduct a sole source acquisition to procure Security Cameras and Installation & Configuration on behalf of NESDIS/OSPO/FCDAS. The existing FCDAS security camera system was installed by Siemens, and consists of various brands of essential cameras, network equipment, and hardware/software.� New security cameras must be procured, and must include installation and configuration in order to maintain/restore visibility in the various areas.� The new security cameras will be integrated into the Government�s existing security cameras infrastructure/system; therefore, the Government is not procuring a new security cameras infrastructure/system.� Siemens is the only company (sole source) that has the unique knowledge and required understanding of the existing security camera infrastructure & system, including site-specific requirements (terrain, network infrastructure, system capability, arctic weather capability, etc.), interoperability of the various brands of cameras with the main controller, unique programming needs and system refinement.� Also, the identified sole source�s detailed and complete understanding of the security camera infrastructure allows it to provide quality, reliable, and speedy installation and configuration.� Using any other source would require major effort/cost to the Government to teach the basics of the security camera system, as follows, to another source: system layout, site layout, network infrastructure, software, hardware, and programming.� Therefore, using another source would adversely impact the Government. North American Industry Classification System Code 541330: Engineering Services, with a small business size standard of $16.5 Million, is applicable to Government�s Requirements.� The Government anticipates negotiating & awarding a firm-fixed-price purchase order with an estimated value less than $200,000.00 & a period of performance of four (4) months after award. Any interested vendor who believes it can meet the Government�s requirements may accurately, clearly and concisely identify its capability in writing by/no later than the response date of this notice.� The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by any interested vendor responding to this notice.� Information submitted in response to this notice may be used to determine whether competitive procedures can be used to meet the Government�s requirements.� The determination whether to compete (e.g., not to compete) the Government�s requirements is solely within the discretion of the Government.� This notice is NOT a solicitation: not a request for quotes or not a request for proposals. Any response to this notice must be submitted in writing via email to mario.gray@noaa.gov and received by/no later than 8/19/2022 12:00 P.M. (Noon) Eastern Time, with the Notice Number in the subject of the email response to this notice.� Phone calls or voice mail messages will NOT be accepted by the Government and will NOT receive a response from the Government.
