- Description
- This is a Notice of Intent published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. This Notice of Intent is for a proposed award of a sole source, firm-fixed price contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. It is not a request for competitive quotes. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 23 intends to award a sole source, firm-fixed price contract to Johnson Controls, Inc. for proprietary software licenses and support services. VA requires the proprietary software licenses from Johnson Controls in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements because the software and services are unique or proprietary to Johnson Controls. Market research revealed that Johnson Controls is the proprietary developer and distributor for the software system currently being utilized by the VA. Additionally, Johnson Controls is the only manufacturer that can provide the required maintenance support for the software licenses. The software system is routinely used by VA to conduct security. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 561621 and the service code is J063. While this synopsis does not constitute a solicitation, interested vendors may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the requirement. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. The Government understands that Johnson Controls is the only vendor that can provide the requested software licenses and support. However, vendors that believe they can provide the capabilities required to fully meet the Government's requirement may submit information in writing to David.Raad@va.gov within ten calendar days after publication of this notice. Such documentation will be reviewed solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis. A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government.
