- Description
- The United States Army Corps of Engineers intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to The Council Oak, LLC ("Council Oak"), the incumbent, as a "stop-gap" bridge order to support the Institute for Water Resources' (IWR) Planning Community of Practice (PCoP) program. The contractor will provide analytical and professional support services while the Government prepares a new competitive requirement. Services consist of maintaining PCoP Strategic Communication, working on the Planning Community of Practice Toolbox which includes managing a SharePoint Site, creating the Planning Ahead Community newsletter, making preparations in support of WRRDA 7001 upcoming actions, and managing PCoP Webinars. This is a limited scope requirement with a period of performance (PoP) of three months, which is meant to maintain essential services until the new contract is awarded. Due to an increasing PCoP program workload, and the continuing evolution of program requirements, the Government requires additional time to analyze the market research and revise the Performance Work Statement in order to maximize competition for the new contract. These support services are essential to IWR and a break in service would seriously affect IWR's ability to successfully fulfil their mission. Therefore, issuing a sole source purchase order to Council Oak for a limited period of performance is in the best interest of the Government. It is anticipated that a competitive procurement will be issued on or around December 1, 2018. This is a special notice prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.2 Synopses of Proposed Contract Actions. A solicitation will not be posted; however, any firm that believes it can meet this requirement may give written notification to the Contracting Officer within 15 days of publication of this announcement. Supporting evidence must be in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the requirement. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government to compete the proposed procurement based on the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. USACE intends on proceeding with awarding a firm fixed price purchase order to The Council Oak, LLC.
