Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract

DLA Distribution intends to award a contract to solicit only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i), Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available, for Pharmaceutical Disposal at DLA Distribution Yokosuka Japan.

Disposal of pharmaceuticals are not covered under any other contract. Due to the large quantity of pharmaceuticals to be disposed, the cost of shipping them to the Continental United States (CONUS) would be significantly higher than disposing them locally. It is more cost effective to have Yamaki Co., Ltd perform this service. Yamaki Co., Ltd is the Only One Responsible local source known that will satisfy the Agency requirements.

Interested contractors may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this effort is 562211 with a size standard of $41.5 million.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. This synopsis is for informational purposes only. A solicitation will not be issued for this procurement action or posted to the single Government Point of Entry, the beta.sam.gov website.

All responsible sources may respond by submitting qualifications/capabilities of the company by 05 February 2021 1000 hours EST to scott.1.estes@dla.mil for consideration by the agency. If no affirmative responses are received, a purchase order will be awarded to Yamaki Co., Ltd.
