This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source, firm fixed-price contract to 3M for a specific connector kit, as they are identified as the sole manufacturer. The contract is a follow-on to an existing long-term contract. While the primary intent is to award to 3M, other potential suppliers are invited to express interest and demonstrate their capability to supply the items prior to the solicitation's closing. All respondents must be registered in SAM.gov and have the required business identifiers. The government reserves the right to alter its acquisition strategy if purchasing from another source is in its best interest.
