- Description
- NOTICE TO INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE. In accordance with FAR 6.205 & 6.302-2, SBA intends to issue sole source contract no. SBAHQ-11-C-0011 to Caliper Corporation located at 1172 Beacon St., Suite 302, Newton, MA 02461. Updates and enhancements to HUBZone maps are to be completed by January 20, 2011. These updates are mandated by the Small Business Reauthorization Act of 1997. Caliper provided the maps to SBA on a previous contract and as a result Caliper has the basic knowledge, experience, and understands the requirments for the HUBZone program. To have a new contractor take over the HUBZone maps could place the mapping system at jeopardy especially when it is critical that the maps are updated per the new census geography and the re-designation of partial 2000 census tracts. The HUBZone program requires a contractor who understands the rules and designation processes and who could provide new shapefiles and data for the HUBZone designations as needed. There would be a steep learning curve for a new contractor. It is beneficial and cost effective to sole source to Caliper as a follow-on contract.
