The period of performance of the purchase order will be for a one (1) year base period from September 7, 2023 through September 6, 2024 and four (4) potential one (1) year option periods. This procurement action is being performed pursuant to FAR 13.106-1(b), Soliciting from a single source: (1) For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, (i) Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). The authority for permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C.3304(a)(1), as the services needed by CFTC are available from only one responsible source and no other type of services will satisfy the needs of the agency. This notice does not constitute a solicitation for offers and, as such, no solicitation is available. However, the Government will consider responses from all responsible sources received by the response date and time identified in this synopsis. Written responses must include sufficient information to establish capability to fulfill the requirement. Any responses received will only be considered for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in lieu of the sole source contract described in this notice, and such determination shall be made at the sole discretion of CFTC.
