10--Modification to Oxyheal Hyperbaric Chamber contract for due dilligence inspections

Under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering (RDEC) Acquisition Center, Natick Contracting Division (NDC), Kansas Street, Natick, MA on behalf of the U. S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center, Natick, MA intends to negotiate and award a Contract modification on a sole source basis with Oxyheal Health Group, 3224 Hoover Ave National City, CA. This work will be to perform four due diligence inspections of Oxyheals hyperbaric chambers at four locations in support of TBI studies. Where this is a modification to an existing award that totals roughly 1% of the total contract value it is for the inspection of Oxyheal chambers it would be unfeasible to contract these inspections to any other firm. Any firm that believes it can meet this requirement may give written notification to the Contracting Officer within 5 days from the date of publication of this announcement. Supporting evidence must be in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the requirements, yet must be limited to 2 pages. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government to compete the proposed procurement based on the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no responses are received, NCD will proceed with awarding a firm fixed price modification to Oxyheal Health Group. Nothing herein should be misconstrued as a request for proposal. No solicitation document is available. Any Questions concerning this acquisition may be addressed to the above address, Attention: Mr. Nate Jordan or by email to: [email protected].
