6. MARKET RESEARCH: Based on the review of previous market research reports, and the results of RFI1822912 �posted on GSA eBuy from July 13 to July 20�the Government received ten vendor responses. Of these, nine resulted in "no bids," and one vendor proposed an alternate chair option that did not meet technical requirements.

Consequently, the Government has determined that there are currently no small businesses on GSA eBuy capable of providing the required Cabot Wrenn chairs.

To expand on the existing market research, the contracting office directly engaged the manufacturer, Cabot Wrenn, to discuss the furniture requirement. Although Cabot Wrenn previously held a GSA contract, it was allowed to lapse during the COVID-19 pandemic and was not renewed.

The Government requested that the manufacturer provide small business authorized resellers capable of quoting on this requirement. Cabot Wrenn provided three small business authorized resellers - MDV Interiors, Interior Resource Group, Inc., and SCS Integrated Support Solutions, LLC, all of which the Government verified as having active registrations in SAM.gov and 2 of which have GSA contracts.

Market research conducted from 08 June 2026 to 13 August 2026 confirms that procuring the specified Cabot Wrenn chairs directly from the manufacturer or an authorized licensed reseller is the only viable acquisition path to satisfy the Government's requirement and serves the best interest of the agency.
