This document contains a justification for other than full and open competition and a related federal contract opportunity notice. The Drug Enforcement Administration intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Mastodon Design for the acquisition of replacement receivers for an existing project. The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, indicating that Mastodon Design is the only responsible source that can meet the agency's requirements. The contract value is estimated at $697,820. Interested vendors must submit capability statements by June 1, 2021 to be considered, though the agency retains sole discretion to make a non-competitive award. The North American Industry Classification code is 334220 with a small business size standard of 1250 employees.
