This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation, or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: NASIC is reconfiguring furnituring and adding workstations to the furniture that they currently have. Rather than purchasing all new product to complete the requirement, existing parts will be used. The project requires specific parts from Steelcase Avenir Series in order to be compatible. Only Steelcase can provide the Furniture parts required to complete reconfiguration of Steelcase Avenir stations to finish a build of 7 additional stations (including a new admin area), kitchenette, and storage bays. Pieces need to affix to one another, and to create a seamless transition between existing and new.
