Inactive Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a firm-fixed price contract on a one time, sole source basis to: Keysight Technologies, Inc., 1900 Garden of the Gods Road, Colorado Springs,... The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a firm-fixed price contract on a one time, sole source basis to: Keysight Technologies, Inc., 1900 Garden of the Gods Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80907 for the purpose of conducting on-site calibration of Keysight equipment that has already been purchased. The calibration is needed to ensure equipment and systems are operating at peak efficiency, as well as to identify any potential issues that need to be corrected in order to perform accurate and precise antenna measurements. Keysight is the original equipment manufacturer for the current equipment and therefore can also affect on-site repairs as necessary. No other company is known to test the complete RF measurement system, which is crucial in determining when/if ancillary equipment, such as cable and adapters, are beginning to break down from continued use or indirectly affecting primary equipment performance. Keysight calibration results are used to identify and evaluate trends regarding both equipment and system performance. The resultant contract will fulfill the FBI's requirement to maintain antenna measurement systems in peak operating condition to effectively conduct the missions of the FBI. The FBI intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Interested parties may identify their interests and capabilities by responding to this requirment to the attention of: Jill Valentine, email address: javalentine@fbi.gov by Thursday, April 15, 2021 (3:00pm Eastern). Emailed responses will only be considered. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is at the discretion of the Government.
