Under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other will satisfy the agency requirements, the Government intends to award a sole source contract with Sutron Corporation, 21300 RidgeTop Circle, Sterling, VA 20166-6520.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation of offers. The point of contact for this action is Ray Kendrick, [email protected].
