Furthermore, this procurement is being processed through other than full and open competition pursuant to statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. This is considered a bridge action in order to avoid a break in service while the protest of the competitive follow-on award is resolved.

Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received by the close of business 09 March 2016 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
