- The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/Operational Contracting Division, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344. This is a Sole Source synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the procurement of application and exam fees for the American Board of Preventive Medicine. 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) 611710 Educational Services. Business size standard for NAICS 611710 is $15 million. The proposed source is American Board of Preventive Medicine Inc. 111 W Jackson Blvd Ste 1110 Chicago, IL, 6060 4. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses 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 Thursday, 4 June 2015, 900 A.M. EST. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: The Government requires American Board of Preventive Medicine application and exam fees for 27 Residents in Aerospace Medicine at the U.S Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine. The American Board of Preventive Medicine (ABPM) is the only group authorized to administer this examination and certificate to allopathic "MD" physicians. There is no other group in the United States providing this service. The American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) recognized only a single source for board certification in the preventive medicine specialties, the American Board of Preventive Medicine (ABPM). Likewise, the state licensing boards recognize only the ABPM for this purpose The Department 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.
