About this opportunity

The Department of Labor, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management, issued a notice of intent to sole source a firm-fixed-price purchase order to Washington Marriott Georgetown for audio-visual equipment rental, A/V service support, and conference room rental for an EBSA Managers' Meeting August 10–13, 2026; responses demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous, cost-effective, and not time-prohibitive must be submitted by July 30, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. EDT.

The contracting activity (DOL OASAM/OSPE) is procuring on behalf of the customer agency (DOL EBSA/OPPEM). Market research solicited 22 hotels across the United States with access to EBSA National and Regional office locations; only four venues met requirements for available dates and audio-visual capabilities. After analyzing overall hotel costs, employee travel, and per diem expenses, DOL determined Washington Marriott Georgetown represented the best value and least expensive option for holding the meeting in Washington, DC. The vendor will not allow other vendors to fulfill the government's needs, supporting the sole-source justification under FAR 6.103-1 (only one responsible source).

Washington Marriott Georgetown is a large business (NAICS 721110, size standard $40 million). Interested parties must submit a capability statement in writing to Contracting Officer Debbie Worrells (Worrells.Deborah@dol.gov) referencing "Response to Sole Source Notice for Washington Marriott Georgetown" in the subject line. The Government reserves the right to proceed with sole source award and will not be responsible for response costs.
