B -- COMMERCIAL NONPHYSICAL RESEARCH

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency plans to award a sole source contract to Corporate Executive Board (CEB) for a one-year membership to the Corporate Leadership Council, providing specialized services in performance management, leadership development, and human capital metrics. This procurement will be conducted under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, which allows non-competitive contracting when only one responsible source is available to meet the agency's needs. The contract will be firm-fixed-price, emphasizing a set cost arrangement for the services rendered. Although this notice invites interested parties to express their capability to fulfill the requirement, it is not a solicitation for competitive proposals, and the agency reserves the right to proceed without competition based on responses received. Key points include the unique proprietary nature of the services offered by CEB, the one-year contract length, and the solicitation number HD888853200100 associated with commercial nonphysical research under NAICS code 541618. Contracting Officer Patrick M. Malaney and Contract Specialist Mark Aglio Jr. serve as primary contacts, with deadlines set for responses within seven calendar days of publication. The solicitation emphasizes the criticality of the specialized services to the agency’s operations and underscores the sole source rationale for this procurement approach.
