- Description
- Page 5 of 5 Notice of Intent to Solicit to a Single Source DESCRIPTION Synopsis The U.S Department of Veteran Affairs (VA), Office of Procurement, Acquisitions, & Logistics (OPAL), Strategic Acquisition Center-Frederick (SAC-F), in accordance with Public Law 109- 461: Veterans Benefits, Health Care, and Information Technology Act of 2006 specifically, the Veterans First Contracting Program outlined in 38 USC § 8127(c), intends to solicit and award a single source contract to Ibility, LLC, 12154 Darnestown RD 393 Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878-2206, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) for the procurement of a replicable process to create digital business cards and the implementation of a pilot to demonstrate the process on behalf of VA Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Innovators Network (iNET). Background VHA iNET has a requirement for a replicable process to create digital business cards and the implementation of a pilot to demonstrate the process. Purpose and Objective VA spends an excessive amount of time and money to order paper business cards for its employees, only to have to reorder when an office location changes, or an employee has a new title. Digital business cards have proliferated the market as a low-cost, eco-savvy alternative to traditional business cards and allow employees the freedom to easily update their contact information in a simple mouse click. The contractor shall deploy a digital business card solution in a small multi-site pilot and provide a replicable process that additional VA medical centers can use to deploy at their sites. Anticipated Period of Performance Delivery shall occur within 17 weeks after receipt of order. Single Source Circumstances The Contracting Officer has determined that a sole source award to Ibility, LLC is in the best interest of the Government. IAW VAAR § 819.7007 Sole source awards to service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns (b), The Contracting Officer s determination whether to make a sole source award is a business decision wholly within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. A determination that only one SDVOSB concern is available to meet the requirement is not required. Additional Information The North American Industry classification (NAICS) Code is 541990 - All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services with a size standard of $16.5 million. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR A COMPETITIVE QUOTE. Any response to this notice must be submitted in writing to the Government and show clear and convincing evidence that another source can meet the Government s requirements and that competition of the requirement would be advantageous to the Government. Respondents must also include their Dun & Bradstreet Number (DUNS), the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and the certification of business size. Respondents must have an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) www.sam.gov. 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. The information received will normally be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to proceed on a non-competitive basis or to conduct a competitive procurement. PHONE CALLS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Responses must be received within seven days after the initial publication of this posting and must reference synopsis number 36C10X22Q0100 and shall be submitted electronically to all POC s noted within this announcement.
