NOTICE OF INTENT TO NEGOTIATE A SOLE-SOURCE GSA TASK ORDER

The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Acquisition and Grants Office (AGO), Eastern Acquisition Division (EAD) and the Office of Marine and Aviation Operation (OMAO), using the procedures set forth in FAR Part 13.5, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Zodiac of North America, Inc. located at 540 Thompson Creek Rd.

While Zodiac has authorized dealers, the dealers are not authorized to sell the Hurricane H638 and similar Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats, and these items are only available by direct purchase from Zodiac of North America, except under special circumstances in accordance with Defense Logistics Acquisition Directive DLAD Part 17, which does not apply to NOAA, or international security partnership programs, which does not apply to this requirement.

However, if any other interested party believes that it can meet the requirements, ...
