- Synopsis � Notice to Sole Source: NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT FOR APPLICATION SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES AND MAINTENANCE FOR THE WATERFRONT ONLINE APPLICATION This notice is issued in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 5.2, Synopses of Proposed Contract Actions. The United States Department of the Interior (DOI), Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE), Acquisition Operations Branch (AOB), is the contracting office for this procurement. The purpose of this notice is to announce the government�s intent to issue a sole source purchase order with Ithaca Clean Energy, Inc., in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b). The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), Office of Public Affairs (OPA), supporting Office of Renewable Energy for Atlantic projects needs to communicate with constituents that may be impacted from BOEM proposed actions. BOEM employs a variety of tools to accomplish this goal but communication with the fishing community has remained a challenge. The �Waterfront� application developed and maintained by Ithaca Clean Energy, Inc is a unique communication tool that improves communication to this group. Ithaca Clean Energy is the sole creator and provider of the Waterfront application which has been identified as an innovative system necessary for communications between developers, federal government activities announcements, and the fishing community. As a result, BOEM anticipates awarding a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Purchase Order to Ithaca Clean Energy. BOEM has a requirement to purchase application subscription services and maintenance for the Waterfront online application as required by the BOEM OPA in support of the Office of Renewable Energy mission. The period of performance for this Purchase Order shall be twelve months from the date of award with two (2) twelve (12) month Option Periods. This purchase is estimated to be under the simplified acquisition threshold. The anticipated place of performance is the contractor�s facility. In accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b), there is only one responsible source known, and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency�s requirements. The contractor, Ithaca Clean Energy, holds proprietary rights to the Waterfront online application and its annual maintenance and does not authorize third-party resellers to distribute or sell their products or services. PLEASE NOTE: This notice is not a request for quote (RFQ). However, any firm that believes itself capable of meeting the requirement described herein may submit a capability statement or quotation which may be considered if received by the agency by 5:00pm Eastern Time on 29 January 2025. All Submissions in response to this notice must be submitted in writing via email to the Contracting Officer at david.villani@bsee.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete the Government�s requirements described in this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
