- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is responsible for conducting acquisitions in support of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). NIOSH has a requirement for hardware and software maintenance of the Mine Rescue and Escape Training (MRET) Laboratory. The CDC intends to award a sole source contract to Mechdyne Corporation in order to satisfy this requirement. The government considers it necessary to use Other than Full and Open Competition authority provided for by Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 -- only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement. The government does not possess a complete list of integrated components and respective specifications/configurations of the MRET system. This contract will be a follow-on contract to provide uninterrupted maintenance and warranties of the hardware and software that was designed, integrated, and installed by Mechdyne Corporation with subcontractors under their supervision. Proprietary software was developed to control various components (some of which are of custom design) of the display and audio systems. The technical specifications for the system were developed by Mechdyne Corporation which includes some custom designed hardware. As a result of this announcement, CDC is not requesting competitive proposals and no solicitation document will be made publicly available. Firms that believe they can meet the requirement can identify themselves and the basis why this procurement should be made competitive by written notification to the Contracting Officer no later than the response date/time of this announcement.
