About this opportunity
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services published a Special Notice announcing intent to award a sole source contract to upgrade public address and emergency stairwell communication systems at its facilities. The Special Notice seeks to replace outdated amplifiers and emergency call boxes with new equipment providing hands-free two-way communication, exact stairwell location reporting, and visual capabilities.
The objective is to modernize critical safety systems supporting over 7,500 employees and contractors. Interested parties have five days to submit capability statements for consideration, though sole source award to the incumbent contractor is indicated due to its 25 years of experience maintaining the existing infrastructure. The base period of performance is one year with three optional one-year extensions. Eligible contractors must demonstrate technical qualifications to satisfy requirements via literature and pricing submitted electronically by the deadline. The Special Notice is not a solicitation but provides notice of forthcoming contract action under authority allowing sole source awards when only one source can satisfy needs.
Notice text
INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) intends to negotiate and award a sole source purchase order to Corbett Technology Solutions, Inc., 4151 Lafayette Center Drive, Suite 700, Chantilly, VA 20151, for a project entitled “Public Address Emergency and Stairwell System Upgrade”. This sole source award will be made under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 235 (C) (1) as implemented by FAR6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies and Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. A justification and approval is currently being processed for this requirement. This requirement is intended as a sole source procurement because CTSI has provided support for the existing system for over 25 years and has knowledge of the infrastructure. The contractor has familiarity with the current system and the upgrade that is required.
CMS REQUIREMENTS: The CMS Public Address system provides one-way communication to CMS employees and contractors at the 7500 Security Blvd. location and the outlying Baltimore CMS locations. The PA system provides information regarding health, safety, working conditions, IT system status, special events, and all emergencies. The current system is outdated. This contractor can provide CMS with the necessary upgraded equipment service and support for the Public Address Emergency Stairwell System.
NAICS CODES: The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 423690 Other Electronic Parts and Equipment Merchant Wholesalers.
INTERESTED PARTIES: All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency.

DISCLAIMER: This notice is not a Request for Proposals or a Solicitation, nor does it restrict the Government as to the ultimate acquisition approach. This notice is not a commitment from the Government. The Government will not reimburse any bid or proposal cost as a result of this notice. No solicitation exists and requests for a copy of the solicitation will be disregarded.
