- Description
- INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBA, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344 publishes this notice of intent to award a sole source contract for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the upgrade of the Nephelometer located at Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13-106-1(b)(1), �Contracting officers may solicit from only one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available�.�The Contracting Officer has determined that only one source is reasonably available: American Ecotech, LLC. This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System code (NAICS) 334519. Business size standard is 600 employees.� The proposed source is American Ecotech, LLC, 426 Metacom Ave, Factory D, Warren, RI 02885. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation, or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received within five (5) days of this notice. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows:� Research revealed no other vendor of the American Ecotech Nephelometer 4000 system. The American Ecotech Models 3000 and 4000 utilize an embedded patented light source. The customer and DoD are partnered with the Department of Commerce�s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Federated Aerosol Network (NFAN), which has standardized requirements including use of the only currently marketed nephelometer instrument, the American Ecotech nephelometer. Using another nephelometer source/design will put in question the extensive data aet already collected by the customer and its students using the American Ecotech Model 3000 Nephelometer. The Department of Defense (DoD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DoD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DoD.� Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for contracts issued after 29 May 2012.� You may contact SAM at 866-606-8220. SAM website:� www.SAM.gov. The contact for this acquisition is Emmeline Spaulding. Any information should be e-mailed to emmeline.spaulding@us.af.mil� no later than 1:00 pm Local (Wright-Patterson AFB) Time, Wednesday, 25 October 2023. Only inquiries/information received by this date will be considered. Be advised that all correspondence sent via e-mail shall contain a subject line that reads �FA8601-24-Q-0007 Nephelometer Model Upgrade.� Note that e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB are designed to filter e-mails without subject lines or with suspicious subject lines or contents (i.e., .exe, or .zip files).� Therefore, if this subject line is not included, the e-mail may not get through the e-mail filters.� Also, be advised that .zip or .exe files are not allowable attachments and may be deleted by the e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB.� If sending attachments with e-mail ensure only .PDF, .doc, or .xls documents are sent.� The e-mail filter may delete any other form of attachments.
