- Description
- The Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (BICE), intends to solicit and award a sole source purchase order utilizing FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures to CellularOne, P.O. Box 506, El Centro, CA 92243. This requirement is for renewal of monthly wireless services previously provided by CellularOne, and purchase of new/replacement phones and accessories as required for the Customs and Border Protection Sector, El Centro, CA. The basis for this proposed non-competitive action is that there is only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the requirements of the agency within this geographic location. The geographic coverage area shall include along the CA/AZ and Mexican Border and must include 45 miles west of Imperial Ave to In-Ko-Pah exit; 65 miles east of Imperial Ave., just east of Yuma, AZ; and 65 miles north of the Mexican border to Salton City, CA. The coverage must be all-inclusive of the majority of the remote areas, including mountains and terrains; and not only along major highways, roadways or within city limits. Airtime is for approximately 160 government owned units (units are tri mode analog and digital combination phones which are not compatible with any digital or satellite systems). The Government anticipates the award of a firm fixed price purchase order on or around October 1, 2003. The required period of performance is from the effective date of purchase order award (F.O.B. Destination: El Centro, CA) through September 30, 2004. The intent of this quotation is for information only, and is not a request for competitive quotations; no quotation will be issued. All information received by the Government by August 29, 2003, will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct competitive procurement. Interested organizations may submit information about their capabilities and qualifications to perform in writing to Mike Nepsa by fax at 949-360-3013, no later than 4:00 p.m. pacific time by August 29, 2003. If you have any questions regarding this announcement, please contact Mike Nepsa at 949-360-3066. Information submitted shall also include all prices for nationwide plans, minutes per plan, no charge for long distance, the geographical area that can be supported, no roaming and no additional charges other than required taxes. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort, based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. This is an unrestricted procurement. NAICS #513322 applies.
