Language Training Max Increase

The purpose of this sole-source synopsis is to announce the revision of the contract maximum order amount on the language training contract supporting the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). H92222-07-D-0025 with MILanguages Corp. was awarded under full and open competition in July 2007 as a Single Award, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with an anticipated period of performance through 14 July 2012. The contract provides critical language and cultural training support to HQ USSOCOM, its Components, Theater Special Operation Commands (TSOCs) and the Services (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps) that have, or provide, direct support to Special Operations Forces (SOF). To continue this critical support, it is necessary to increase the maximum order amount of this contract by $15M (from $100M to $115M). The proposed contract action does not extend the current period of performance. This action is necessary to allow continued use of this contract while the competitive acquisition for the follow-on contract is being completed. The acquisition began in May 2010. The estimated date of award of the new competitive contract for these services is May 2011. The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, all responses received by the date and time specified in this notice will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
