The Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs (ICE) Office of Acquisition Management (OAQ) Irving, TX 75063 is issuing this special notice to inform industry of the intent to execute a single source award as prescribed in FAR 13.106-1(b)(i) to Noble Sales Company Inc. 302 Weymouth Street, Rockland, MD 02370.

Prior to awarding, market research was conducted and concluded the request to training services as a sole source contract is in the best interests to the Government because the training is not available from any other contractor. In accordance with FAR Part 13, specifically Subpart 13.106-1(b)(i), there is only one (1) responsible source, and no other software licenses will satisfy agency requirements.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement and supporting documentation to the contracting office no later than Thursday, September 15, 2022, 9:00 AM, EDT. Interest/capability statements may be sent to Terry Teichmann via email to terry.l.teichmann@ice.dhs.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
