AI Contract Overview

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) plans to award a sole source contract to SEA Limited, located in Columbus, Ohio, to perform detailed measurements of vehicle characteristics. The services required include determining the lateral, longitudinal, and vertical positions of the vehicle’s center of gravity, tire weight distribution, various moments of inertia (roll, pitch, yaw), the roll/yaw mass product of inertia, as well as static tilt and dynamic test data. The agency justifies the sole source approach under FAR 6.302-1, asserting that SEA Limited is uniquely qualified to provide these specialized measurements, and no other suppliers can meet the requirements. Although this notice is not a solicitation for competitive quotes, the CPSC has invited any other firms capable of providing these services to submit written notifications with sufficient supporting evidence by December 30, 2009, to the designated Contract Specialist, Eddie Ahmad. The government will evaluate any responses but retains the discretion to proceed with the sole source award to SEA Limited if no viable alternatives are presented. The contract is associated with the solicitation number CPSC-Q-10-0014 and falls under the NAICS code 541712.
