However, a determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received from all responsible sources will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. If WAPA identifies no other capable sources by the response date, then a single source acquisition award will be made.
