Rane SSJ_Signed_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Sources Sought Synopsis for a federal contract opportunity. The U.S. Government currently intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to RANE Network, Inc. to provide critical and unique information, including strategic forecasting, geopolitical intelligence, analysis of global defense, and situation reports to support the U.S. Army War College (USAWC) curriculum and research projects. The statutory authority for the sole source procurement is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) due to circumstances of urgency and exclusive licensing agreements.

The Government is seeking information from interested businesses, including small businesses, to determine if they can perform the requirement at a fair market price in order to potentially support a competitive procurement. Respondents are requested to provide information on their experience, pricing, and recommendations to improve the acquisition approach. A determination not to compete this requirement is solely within the Government's discretion, but if a competitive solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Governmentwide Point of Entry.
