T--Remote infrared digital cameras

The National Park Service (NPS) plans to negotiate a sole source contract with Reconyx LLP for remote infrared digital cameras, citing FAR 6.302-1 as the authority for not pursuing full and open competition. Reconyx LLP, located in La Crosse, Wisconsin, is identified as the only responsible source capable of meeting the government's requirements for this equipment. A justification supporting this sole source approach has been prepared, ensuring compliance with acquisition regulations. The contract will be firm-fixed price with an anticipated delivery completion date around October 31, 2008, and the solicitation was scheduled for release on or about July 31, 2008. The contracting office managing this effort is part of the National Park Service at the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area in Thousand Oaks, California. Although specific NAICS codes and set-aside details are not provided, the contract relates to remote infrared digital cameras, essential for the agency’s operations. The contracting services are under the Department of the Interior’s Dsc Contracting Services Division based in Denver, Colorado. This arrangement aims to fulfill the NPS's specialized needs with a single vendor capable of supplying the required technology within the stipulated timeline.
