- Description
- Synopsis - Notice of Intent to Issue Sole Source Purchase Order for Advanced Casing and Tubing & Load Stress Analysis Joint Industry Project (JIP) This notice is in accordance with FAR subpart 5.2, Synopses of Proposed Contract Actions. The U.S. Department of the Interior, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE), Acquisition Operations Branch, is the contracting office for this procurement. The purpose of this notice is to announce the intent to award a firm-fixed-price type of purchase order on a sole source basis to Altus Well Experts, Inc. (Altus) pursuant to FAR Subpart 13.5, Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items and in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b), Soliciting from a single source. Altus Well Experts was formed by previous engineers behind the black box well design software used many in the industry. Altus is now leading a shared research program, aimed at bringing together key stakeholders in the oil and gas industry, to analyze the advancement of casing and tubing loads. In the process of validating results from the JIP study against participant field data, an improved software tool will be developed with open source codes made available to the participants of the JIP. This cloud-native software will be one of the deliverables of the JIP with a unique feature of multi-well thermal analysis. For BSEE to find another organization with the specialized skills, historical knowledge and technical expertise to lead this type of research and develop a corresponding software solution would result in a considerably larger cost to the government as it will not benefit from a cost-sharing set-up. Only Altus can act as the contractor as they are currently running the JIP that is being conducted at this time. It is anticipated that a purchase order award will occur on or before December 31, 2020. The anticipated period of performance for this Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) project is 12 months. The applicable NAICS Code is 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services). This is NOT a request for competitive quotes. This notice of intent is for informational purposes only. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by the agency if received by the Point of Contact (POC) listed below by 2:00 p.m. ET, December 15, 2020 (reference Solicitation No. 140E0121Q0005). A determination by the Government not to compete this action based on this notice is within the discretion of the Government. POC: Jillian Gerna, Contracting Officer, BSEE, Acquisition Operations Branch - VAE-AMD, 45600 Woodland Rd., Sterling, VA 20166. Any response to this notice shall be emailed to the Contracting Officer, Jillian Gerna at Jillian.Gerna@bsee.gov.
