- Description
- NASA/GRC has a requirement for the extension of the Raman Spectroscopy Measurements contract (NNC12CA21C) with Ohio Aerospace Institute (OAI) on a sole-source basis pursuant to 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1), Only One Responsible Source. The Raman Spectroscopy Measurements contract began March 6, 2012 and is currently scheduled for completion on December 31, 2012.NASA intends to extend the period performance for a potential nine month period. This extension will begin January 1, 2013 and end September 30, 2013. The extension is determined to be in the best interest of the Government to ensure uninterrupted effort to NASA Glenn Research Center until a new contract is awarded. The current contractor, OAI, is considered the only capable contractor that can meet NASA/GRC needs given the short period of performance for this extension. Additionally, competing the requirement for a period of up to nine months would not be possible given the end date of the current contract and the strict requirement of uninterrupted support. Awarding the potential nine month contract extension to another contractor at the same time that there is a competitive action in process to include this work would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that will not be recovered. The Government does not intent to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on December 28, 2012. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
