--W23BFK61237001 Intent To Sole Source

The United States Army Intelligence and Security Command plans to award a sole-source contract for the T-TEMPEST Tabletop Enclosure System to Action Systems, the only manufacturer capable of producing this item. The award will be executed under specific legal authorities that allow for non-competitive procurement, specifically 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which justify the use of a sole responsible source. This announcement is a notice of intent rather than a request for proposals, and any government decision not to compete will be based solely on responses to this notice. The government will consider any information received within a limited three-day period to determine whether a competitive procurement is necessary. The contract is designated under solicitation number USA-SNOTE-060719-009, posted on July 19, 2006. It falls under the NAICS code 334119, associated with the manufacturing of electronic components and equipment. The contracting office is the Department of Defense’s W00Y Contracting Office located at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The notice outlines that the procurement is for an office of the armed services and emphasizes the unique capability of the selected contractor to fulfill the requirement, underscoring the justification for the sole-source approach.
