About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to award a sole source purchase order contract to the Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs) for up to 41 WaterISAC Pro subscriptions for its Office of Water, Water Infrastructure and Climate Resilience Division, and Regional staff. This procurement will utilize Simplified Acquisition Procedures under the $250,000 simplified acquisition threshold, as ISACs is the only known organization able to provide the required information sharing and analysis services through its secure portal. Interested parties have 10 calendar days to identify their interest and capability to respond, demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government. The determination not to compete this action is at the government's discretion, and no costs will be reimbursed for responding to this notice.
This procurement is not set aside, and there is no incumbent or expected award value disclosed. The EPA seeks to meet its homeland security obligations related to critical infrastructure protection through this sole source award to ISACs, which provides exclusive access to a community and network for water security information sharing and analysis.

This type of service enables EPA to meet its homeland security obligations under Presidential Policy Directive 21, Presidential Decision Directive 63, and Executive Order 13636. Interested parties may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement within ten (10) calendar days of the publication of this notice.
