70 -- ESRI geographic Information Software

Notice of Intent to award a Sole Source Procurement. The Government intends to issue a sole source purchase order for Geographic Information System Software to ESRI Inc, 380 New York Street, Redlands CA 92373. The software is necessary for Charleston AFB to satisfy mission requirements. The 55th Contracting Squadron intends to award a purchase order by other than full and open competition in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 (a)(2)(ii). Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination not to compete this proposed procurement was made because ESRI is the manufacturer and only distributor of the Geographic Information System software. The procurement of the software must be completed in a timely manner in order to meet mission requirements. Questions should be directed to Mike Galbraith in writing via email: [email protected] or by fax: (402) 294-7280.
