The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under FAR 6.302-1, though responsible sources may identify interest/capability or submit proposals; this notice is not a request for competitive proposals. Award will be made only if the offeror, product/service, or manufacturer meets the qualification requirements at time of award, and FAR Part 12 commercial-item policies are not being used.
