Tuition for Coast Guard Dependents in ST. Croix

INTENT TO AWARD
The US Coast Guard Base Miami Beach Procurement and Contacting department on behalf of U.S. Coast Guard Base/Sector San Juan Puerto Rico intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order for the Tuition of 2 Coast Guard Dependents to attend the Good Hope Country Day School, Kingshill Virgin Island.

Based on their collective assessment of the schools available, there is only one school in St. Croix which meets acceptable educational standards; all other Federal agencies on island (FBI, DEA, ATF) send their dependents to that school (i.e., Good Hope Country Day School). The CG must rely on that assessment, since neither DoD nor the CG has the ability to perform educational assessments

This notice of intent is not a solicitation. Information submitted in response to this notice will be used solely to determine whether competitive procedures could be used for this acquisition.
Responses to this notice must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government, would not be cost or time prohibitive, and would not or delay the start of school for the two Coast Guard dependents.
The determination not to compete this proposed contract action is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by responding to this notice.
This is NOT a request for quotes or proposals.
