Notice of Intent to award Sole Source

The U.S. Marine Corps intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract on a sole source basis to National Forensic Science Technology Center, Inc. for providing services related to MARSOC Exploitation Analysis Cell (EAC) Lab Training and Exercise Support. This procurement follows the authority under FAR 6.302-1, indicating that only one responsible source is available, and no other supplies or services can meet the agency’s specific requirements. The contract does not invite competitive quotations, but interested parties may express interest and demonstrate their capability to fulfill the requirement by submitting information via email by the specified deadline. The government retains sole discretion over whether to pursue a competitive process based on any responses received. The contract, referenced by solicitation number H92257-14-Q-0140, falls under NAICS code 611699 and is managed by the Commanding General of the Department of Defense, with the office located at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. Joel S. Lewis is the designated point of contact for this action. The notice primarily serves as an intent to award and not as a solicitation, reflecting the specific need for expertise that only the National Forensic Science Technology Center can provide in support of critical training and exercise needs for MARSOC operations.
