35--NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE

The National Park Service SF Major Activity Buying Office intends to negotiate a sole source procurement action VenTek International for the purchase of 6 VenTek System VI Automated Fee Machines at Chickasaw National Recreation Area. The System VI automated pay station is a proprietary AFM from VenTek International and the current kiosk structure was constructed to specifically meet the size requirements of the AFM when originally installed. VenTek is the only company producing PCI DSS compliant AFMs able to accommodate the current kiosk configuration and management software to meet our particular boat ramp and campground management needs. The proposed contract action covers supplies/services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals; however this notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Inquiries and proposals received within ten (10) days after the date of publication of this synopsis 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. Any information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement.
