The USDA-ARS seeking title service work and updated boundary survey with existing boundary survey and Land Exchange Agreement. The title service is in Hale and Howard Counties in Texas, and will require the title work for including and annotating the current mineral and subsurface rights if any from the deed office. No mineral or subsurface rights will be required to be negotiated. The intent will be to award a sole source contract, outside of documented/verified proof that there are viable competitive options available that can execute the title work of the existing boundary survey and land exchange agreement. This notice does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ)/Invitation for Bid (IFB)/Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFQ, IFB or RFP in the future. This notice does not commit the USDA to contract for any supply or service. Further, the U.S. Government is not seeking quotes, bids or proposals at this time and will not accept unsolicited proposals in response to this sources sought notice. The U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this notice. Submittals will not be returned to the responder. A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. However, if a competitive solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Governmentwide Point of Entry. It is the responsibility of potential offerors to monitor the Governmentwide Point of Entry for additional information pertaining to this requirement. In response to this sources sought, please provide: 1. Identify any condition or action that may be having the effect of unnecessarily restricting competition with respect to this acquisition and identify alternatives or solution solutions. Provide the specific aspects that unreasonably restrict competition and the rationale for such conclusion. 2.
