sole source

The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight intends to add new labor rates to a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) established under FAR 8.405 with Hay Group, Inc., Arlington, VA. These rates are considered open market since they are not under Hay Group's GSA Federal Supply Schedule. Pursuant to FAR 8.402(f), this notification is of our intent to add these rates to the BPA for administrative convenience. This is on a sole-source basis to provide the specialized experience and qualifications necessary for successful implementation of a personnel retention plan that was originally designed by the Hay Group. The Government intends to add these rates on a sole-source basis under FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This is not a request for competitive proposals, and no solicitation is available. Notwithstanding, any firm that believes it is capable of satisfying OFHEO's requirements may submit a written capabilities statement. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement to Janice Uthe at [email protected] . A determination not to compete the requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
