About this opportunity
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued a Special Notice for a sole source purchase order to the County of Placer, California for the purpose of joining their trunked radio system, PIRCS (Placer Interoperable Radio Communications System). This sole source award is due to the unique geographical location of the PIRCS antenna site, which is deemed critical for the IRS Criminal Investigation (CI) unit to maintain maximum radio coverage in the respective city.
The purpose of this sole source award is to provide services for which the IRS intends to negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). The proposed contract action will be for a Base Year and two Option Years, with a period of performance from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2027. While responsible sources may identify their interest and capabilities to meet the requirements by submitting capabilities statements in writing to the IRS Primary Point of Contact by May 29, 2024, it is solely within the IRS's discretion to evaluate the capabilities and determine whether to compete this contract action.
Notice text
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) intends to award a sole source purchase order to the County of Placer, CA for joining their trunked radio system PIRCS (Placer Interoperable Radio Communications System). A purchase order will be issued for a Base Year and two Option Years as follows:
Period of Performance (POP):
Base Year: 07/01/2024 – 06/30/2025
Option Year 1: 07/01/2025 – 06/30/2026
Option Year 2: 07/01/2026 – 06/30/2027
Due to the uniqueness of this requirement, and the geographical location of the PIRCS antenna site, no other location is acceptable. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. A written solicitation will not be issued, and quotes are not being requested.
The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority FAR 13.106-1(b). This service is being solicited and awarded as a commercial item in accordance with FAR Part 12, in conjunction of FAR Part 13.
Justification: This is an agent safety issue. The Contractor operates the antenna sites that are uniquely located in an area which allows Criminal Investigation (CI) to maintain maximum coverage in the respective city. Furthermore, the IRS has already performed detailed propagation studies based on the elevation and placement on the tower that ensures CI gets maximum radio coverage at the location identified above.
Responsible sources may identify their interest and capabilities to meet the requirements by submitting capabilities statements in writing to the IRS Primary Point of Contact via email no later than Wednesday, May 29, 2024, by 12:30 PM, Pacific Day Time (PDT).
