The statutory authority for this procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204 (d)(1)(B)(ii), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B) and (iii)(B), supplies and services are available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for the continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. Firms interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact NGSC directly. Per FAR 5.207(c)(16)(ii), all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.
