- Description
- The United States Department of Transportation, Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Office of Acquisition Services, under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Rules (FAR) Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, intends to issue a sole source purchase order to Envisions Consulting LLC of Falls Church, VA for facilitation services for strategic planning sessions for FRA's Office of Railroad Policy. The justification is as follows. Envisions Consulting has developed expertise in FRA's strategic vision and established relationships of trust that cannot be duplicated by another contractor without expending additional time and resources for redundant services. Indeed, for the strategic planning facilitation services to be successful, they require building this sort of relationship of trust with key members of FRA's team. This allows for the open communication needed to accomplish the work. Successful performance of these services by another contractor would entail, essentially, repeating previously completed sessions in order for that contractor to gain the requisite institutional knowledge and to build the relationships of trust that are required, meaning employing excessive government time and resources. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE IS AVAILABLE. Notwithstanding, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting this requirement may submit a response, which if received by the closing date of this announcement, will be considered. Responses to this announcement must be in writing to the Contract Specialist, Ryan Daniels, at ryan.daniels@dot.gov.
