- Description
- This is a special notice prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 5.2 - Synopses of Proposed Contract Actions. The contracting office for this notice is the 10th Contracting Squadron, USAF Academy, CO 80840. The US Air Force Academy (USAFA) intends to award a sole source BPA using simplified procedures in accordance with FAR part 13 to University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, located at 3090 Center Green Dr. Boulder, Colorado. The authority for this non-competitive award is 10 USC 2304(c)(1), only one responsible source. The NAICS code for this requirement is 517111. The size standard as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration is 1,500 employees. This notice incorporates provisions and clauses that are in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular FAC 2024-05 effective 22 May 2024. The Government has deemed the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research to be a responsible contractor with respect to performance. UCAR shall provide USAFA membership in the Front Range GigaPop (FRGP), a consortium of universities, research organizations, non-profit corporations, government agencies, cities, counties, States, and K-12s that cooperate to share wide area networking services including Internet2, intra-FRGP, commodity Internet, caching, and peering connectivity. Front Range GigaPop is the only regional consortium serving such institutions in the state of Colorado. As such, it is the only solution that meets USAFA�s requirement. Therefore, the contracting officer has determined that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available IAW FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).
