- Description
- Intent to Sole Source **This is not a solicitation** Synopsis The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBB, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344 publishes this notice of intent to award a sole source contract for informational purposes only. The National Space Intelligence Center (NSIC) has a requirement for unclassified/open-source research and analysis on key intelligence questions identified by customer Principal Intelligence Analysts. This service is to be performed at Mercyhurst University, PA. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 611699 � All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction. Business size standard: $16.5 million. The proposed source is Mercyhurst University, PA. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract regardless of responses that may be received to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation, or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received by 1300 Eastern Time, 12 March 2025. To comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: Market Research was conducted, and it was determined that no other sources can provide a service capable of meeting the full list of the National Space Intelligence Center requirements. As such, this procurement will be awarded on a sole source basis to Mercyhurst University, PA. This acquisition will not be a small business set-aside since two or more small businesses cannot provide this requirement. The D�partement of Defense (DOD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DOD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DOD. Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for solicitations issued after 29 May 2012. You may contact SAM by telephone at 866-606-8220 or online at https://www.sam.gov.
