R--INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE FOR TRANSIT ADVERTISING SERVICES

The New Mexico USP&FO Purchasing and Contracting office intends to award a sole source contract to Templeton Marketing Services, Inc., based in Albuquerque, NM, for transit advertising services specifically for the Las Cruces city bus system. Templeton Marketing Services is recognized as the exclusive provider authorized to solicit and manage advertising payments on behalf of the city of Las Cruces. The contract will be a firm fixed price award conducted through Simplified Acquisition procedures to facilitate this arrangement. Although this is an intent to sole source, other vendors capable of providing similar transit advertising services are invited to respond within 10 days of the announcement’s publication. These responses will be reviewed to assess the legitimacy and capability of interested businesses, potentially opening opportunities for future contract considerations if found suitable. It should be noted that this notice is not a solicitation or a request for quotations, and no formal solicitation documents are presently available. The effort falls under NAICS code 541890 and is managed by the Department of Defense’s USPFO Activity in New Mexico.
