- Description
- INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE ORDER The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Office of Business Solutions Acquisition (OBSA), Treasury Operations Branch, on behalf of the Department of Treasury's Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OIA) intends to negotiate a sole source acquisition with Analytic Advantage for training course and development support services. The proposed acquisition will have a period of performance from September 30, 2022 through September 29, 2023 plus two (2) 12-month option periods.� This was previously acquired through 2032H321P00023. The authority permitting a sole source acquisition is FAR 6.302-1� �Only one responsible source; or brand name specification.� Analytic Advantage has developed a customized course for classifying analytical products which is recognized by training coordinators within the Intelligence Community (IC) as best value. Other sub-ordinates within the IC currently apply the proposed contractor�s custom-developed writing course strategies to classify their analytic products.� Using this same contractor would provide OIA/A&P Intelligence Analysts like knowledge and strategy to produce analytical products consistent with that of other intelligence analysts within the IC.� Use of proposed contractor services for this requirement would significantly improve OIA analysts� ability to provide finished products to the IC in optimal format.� This improvement would significantly reduce the number of OIA products that currently require (further) revision, at the IC level, prior to publishing. The skillset gained will allow analysts (regardless of their portfolio specialty) to apply the knowledge to any developed product, which benefits the government�s IC detail/rotational program. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent to sole source is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received no later than September 7, 2022, NOON EST. Responses shall be submitted to Aaron.C.Hill@irs.gov. Responses shall include, at a minimum, the following information: 1. The name of your company; 2. Company DUNS No.; 3. POC name and contact information; 4. The specific product(s) that your company offers that fulfills the same function as the items to be included on this order or evidence that your company is capable of providing a renewal for the specific items mentioned above; and, 5. A description of that product(s) and its overall capabilities. 6. A discussion of your business status, size, and recognized category (e.g. small, 8(a), Woman-owned, etc.) It is your responsibility to demonstrate how your product(s) is capable of providing the same text, scope and information that exists in the training course and development support services via Analytic Advantage.� The Government will not seek additional information from your company if you fail to provide sufficient evidence of having a product cable of meeting the Government's needs. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government's Contracting Officer. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
