Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Increase Under Contract N00033-12-D-8007

Military Sealift Command- Washington, DC (MSC-DC) intends to issue a modification under N00033-12-D-8007 with CDI Marine Company to increase the maximum quantity of the Contract under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements, on or about 12 June 2014. The Contract provides support services to the MSC N7 Engineering Directorate for professional AutoCAD drafting in order to develop and revise engineering drawings. The contract increase is required due to shipboard mission requirements and the fact that N7 engineers are not equipped with the AutoCAD software after the Command's recent computer upgrades.
CDI Marine Company is currently providing same and similar services as will be required under task orders issued as a result of this modification. Using other companies would result in substantial duplication of costs that are not expected to be recovered through competition. In addition, the delays associated with bringing in a new contractor or contractors are unacceptable.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541330 with the size standard of $35.5 million. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals or quotes; however, all responsible sources may submit a quotation and technical capabilities, which, if received within 3 calendar days of publication of this notice, shall be considered by MSC. All responses must be submitted to the Government point of contact at the email address stefani.nick@navy.mil. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.

Services are being procured by:
