NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA)/Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization (DITCO)/PS8323, located at Building 3600, 2300 East Drive, Scott Air Force Base, Illinois 62225-5406 is issuing this notice of intent (NOI) to inform industry contractors of the Government’s intent to execute a sole source award under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 – Acquisition of Commercial Items.
The intended Contractor is Economic Research Institute (ERI), Inc., located at 111 Academy Drive, Suite 270, Irvine, California 92617.
The DISA/DITCO/Cost and Pricing Branch requires the renewal of ERI Salary Assessor software. While other web-based tools exist, DISA requires a renewed ERI subscription in order to review offeror’s basis of estimate that utilize ERI salary data in developing their cost/price proposals. The ERI Salary Assessor allows the Government to have a reliable and consistent data source for “in-house data” instead of utilizing contractor supplied data (i.e., copies of salary surveys).
ERI is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and currently there are no authorized resellers. ERI is the only solution that is authorized and certified for use by DISA.
This procurement is being conducted using commercial item procedures pursuant to FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13, specifically FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), allowing the Contracting Officer to solicit from one source.

At this time, the incumbent contractor ERI, Inc. is the only source capable of providing all necessary capabilities.
The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 USC 2304 (c) (1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Companies who believe they can provide this service must indicate their interest in writing within 15 days of this notification and include a detailed capability statement. No reimbursement for any cost connected with providing capability information will be provided. All responsible sources will be considered in evaluating the determination to issue a sole-source contract. Quotations or proposals received in response to this notice cannot be accepted since this synopsis cannot be considered a request for quote or a request for proposal. A solicitation will NOT be posted to SAM.gov due to the sole source nature of the requirement.
