NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE -USCG MUSEAM
Solicitation # CGSS26-COCO41-017
The United States Coast Guard has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for the design and production project of the National Coast Guard Museum located in New London, Connecticut. The agency intends to award a Task Order to the incumbent contractor, Design and Production, Inc., to transition the museum from the design phase to full physical realization. This project involves the fabrication, transportation, and installation of custom casework, artifact mounts, museum-grade graphics, gallery lighting, and integrated audiovisual technologies. Notable deliverables include the modification and suspension of a full-size HH-65 Helicopter, the installation of a large-scale lobby sculpture, and the implementation of advanced security hardware for high-value archival cases. The decision to pursue a sole source award is based on the need for continuity of design and the avoidance of substantial duplication of costs. As the Designer of Record, Design and Production, Inc. holds the proprietary intellectual property and structural engineering models required for the project. Utilizing a different contractor would necessitate expensive reverse-engineering of existing designs and could cause significant project delays of nine to twelve months. The performance period includes a base period through September 30, 2026, with an option period extending through August 4, 2027. While this is not a request for competitive proposals, interested vendors capable of meeting these specialized requirements may submit capability statements by September 1, 2026.

B--Notice of Intent to Sole Source
Solicitation # DOIFFBO260153
The U.S. Department of the Interior, acting through the Joint Administrative Operations on behalf of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, plans to award a sole-source purchase order to the Museum of the Aleutians in Dutch Harbor, Alaska, for the comprehensive management of archaeological collections from the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. This work includes reviewing, stabilizing, cataloging, rehousing in archival conditions, digitizing, entering data into a database, and providing permanent curatorial care for the artifacts. The decision to proceed without competitive bidding is based on the Museum of the Aleutians being the sole known repository that meets the federal standards outlined in 36 CFR Part 79 and is authorized to accept permanent curation of archaeological materials from the Aleutian Islands. No formal qualification requirements under FAR 2.101 apply, and while the solicitation is posted as sole-source, all responsible sources may submit responses by the deadline. The response deadline is August 9, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. Central Time, and submissions must be sent to Tanner Frank, Contracting Officer, at Tanner_Frank@ios.doi.gov. The action is associated with NAICS code 712110 and is being managed from the Falls Church, Virginia office, with no specific place of performance defined beyond the museum’s location in Alaska.
