Installation of Secondary Conduit Entrance

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) intends to award a sole source contract to AT&T Corporation. The Contractor shall provide material and labor to install a secondary conduit entrance into Module K of the IRS Computing Center. The request for quote(s) will be requested only from AT&T due to their proprietary equipment that is already connected the existing network system. The secondary conduit entrance must be configured directly to the existing AT&T proprietary equipment. The Government intends to award to only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), as AT&T contains proprietary equipment that is not serviceable from any other sources. This is not a Request for Quotes (RFQ) and no solicitation will be publicized. This acquisition is being awarded in accordance with FAR part 13. The anticipated date of award is September 10, 2012 for a period of performance from the date of contract award through on or before November 30, 2012. However, if you have the capability to fulfill this requirement, you may submit such capabilities in writing to the IRS Primary Point of Contact. Written response to this notice must be provided to this office no later than Thursday, September 06, 2012 by 12:00 PM Eastern Time. It is solely within the discretion of the Government to evaluate your capabilities and to make a determination to compete this contract action. A final award decision will be made within the best interest of the Government to fulfill this requirement. Any questions to this action should be directed to the IRS Primary Point of Contact.
