D--Notice of Intent to Award on a Sole Source - BMC Remedy Fort Monroe Onboarding

The Department of Defense office at Fort Eustis intends to place a sole source order with BMC Software, Inc. for the BMC Remedy Fort Monroe Onboarding service. This notice serves to gather information on whether other vendors can provide comparable services and to determine if any bona fide competition exists before proceeding with the order. No formal solicitation or request for quotes currently exists, and responses must include sufficient pricing and technical data to evaluate vendor capabilities. Responses must be submitted in writing by noon on September 23, 2009, and telephone inquiries will not be accepted. If no affirmative responses demonstrating a better alternative source are received by that deadline, the order will be awarded to BMC Software, Inc. This action is not an award nor a request for proposals, rather it is a preliminary step to confirm the use of a sole source contract. The notice emphasizes that a request for quote will not be considered an affirmative response to the notice. The contracting office, identified by the solicitation number W91QUZ-07-A-0006 and categorized under NAICS code 541511 for custom computer programming services, is managed by the W6QM Micc-fdo Ft Eustis organization. The point of contact for further information is Vivian Otto, reachable at the provided phone number. The office is located at Fort Eustis, Virginia.
