Pursuant to the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), the Contracting Officer may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source is reasonably available. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Program Support Center (PSC), Acquisition Management Services (AMS), on behalf of the Administration for Community Living (ACL), intends to issue a sole source to:

National Academy of Sciences
2101 Constitution Avenue N.W.
Washington, DC 20418-0006

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Program Support Center (PSC), on behalf of Administration for Community Living (ACL), needs to sponsor the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Forum on aging, disability, and independence. The sponsorship allows ACL to influence the content of the scientific meetings and further meet its mission of maximizing the independence, well-being, and health of older adults, people with disabilities across the lifespan, and their families and caregivers so that all people, regardless of age and disability, live with dignity, make their own choices, and participate fully in society.

IOM was chartered in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), under the terms of the 1863 Congressional charter. One central purpose of the NAS and IOM is to advise the government on issues of science, medicine, and technology. The Academy and its affiliated organization are private, independent, nonprofit institutions that serve as congressionally chartered advisers to the government.

The IOM Forum on Aging, Disability, and Independence serves as a neutral venue through which decision makers in the government, the marketplace, and the community can come together in the battle to prevent or reduce disabling conditions and environments and to enhance long-term services and supports for older adults and individuals with disabilities. The Forum identifies and examines challenges; explores new approaches for resolving problem areas; elevates the visibility of key issues that require additional attention; scrutinizes important and potentially controversial scientific and policy issues; and sets the stage for policy actions.

This is not a solicitation for competitive proposal. No solicitation document is available. All responsible sources that have determined that they can provide the same services may submit product information and a capabilities statement that speaks to the services ACL is seeking in this proposed acquisition. The email subject line must reference ACL158328. All responses are due by August 18, 2015, 12:00 P.M. Eastern Time and can be sent to Zipora Chepkoit at [email protected]. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
