This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c) (2), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-2, Unusual and Compelling Urgency. The Network Contracting Office (NCO) 22 Gilbert located at the Southern Arizona VA Healthcare System (SAVAHCS) in Tucson, AZ, intends to award a sole source contract for a one-time upgrade of the Physical Access Control System (PACS) for the New Mexico VA Healthcare System (NMVAHCS) in Albuquerque, NM.
