W--Extension of W9124Q-06-F-1307 for Copier Lease/Maintenance

This announcement is a notice of intent to extend an existing contract on a sole source basis to Canon U.S.A., 2110 Washington Boulevard Suite 300, Arlington, VA 22204-5710, for the Copier Maintenance Services contract at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The proposed contract action will extend the performance period of Contract W9124Q-06-F-1307 by six months under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements, 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Estimated dollar value of this action is $164,491.80, for the period of performance: 1 October 2011 - 31 March 2012. The Government's intent is to extend the current services with Canon in order for White Sands Missile Range to continue using the copiers until the decentralization of copier services can begin via an enterprise-wide contract to be awarded by the 7th Signal Command which is expected to be in place by late summer. Since the copiers remain on the installation and must be removed within the next six months there is no possibility that other contractors can meet the current requirement for use of these copiers until their removal. Comments should be submitted to the contracting office by email to: [email protected], no later than 28 September 2011 at 1200 MST. Comments submitted for consideration of other methods will not be evaluated. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 532420. There is no associated small business size standard.
