66--SIRCHIE LABKAM

The Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Gordon, GA plans to award a sole-source contract to SIRCHIE Acquisition Company, LLC for the acquisition of the RUVIS LABKAM 1000 PPI System. The procurement falls under NAICS code 339999 and will be conducted using Simplified Acquisition Procedures per FAR part 13, along with commercial acquisition procedures outlined in FAR part 12. This non-competitive award is justified under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1), which allows for a sole-source contract when only one responsible source is available. No solicitation will be issued, and the notice explicitly states it is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government before 8:00 am on July 9, 2012, otherwise the contract will be awarded without further notice. Responses must be submitted in writing, as oral communications are not acceptable. The determination to proceed without competition remains at the government's sole discretion. The contract is associated with the Department of Defense office at Fort Gordon, Georgia, with no specified place of performance beyond the agency's location.
