Pre-Award Notices of Exclusion & for Small Business Programs

Solicitation Number TQ2006MCB0002 This is a written announcement to all interested parties. This announcement does not address any offers that have already been excluded from the competition for acceptability grounds/material nonconformities since that status does not change. Similarly, this notice does not change the status of those offerors previously put on notice by earlier selection or award notices that they were or were not awardees.

The organization identified below was originally identified as selected for award on the Pre-Award notice dated December 17, 2007, and an award was subsequently made to it provided it was determined to not be other than a small business concern for this procurement. There was a small business size challenge concerning the award to the organization and the process went unresolved for an extended period of time. That size challenge was conclusively voided only after the second Pre-Award Notice was posted December 18, 2008, whereupon the organization was then further considered for award and is again among the best value awardees.

Therefore, this announcement serves as notice that, with the selection of the additional organization named below, the GSA has completed evaluation of all proposals for Alliant Small Business under the subject Solicitation without discussions per FAR 15.306(a)(3). After review and evaluation in accordance with the criteria established in the solicitation, the following additionally selected organization is deemed to have submitted a most highly qualified offer. No additional selections are expected. No other offerors are in the same situation as this organization found itself during the evaluation process. This announcement fulfills the separate notice requirements in FAR 15.503(a)(1) and 15.503(a)(2). The Contracting Officer has formally submitted a new size protest to the Small Business Administration concerning this organization in order to assure that it is a small business concern for this procurement.
