THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS
The 377 MSG Contracting Division Kirtland AFB, NM intends to solicit and negotiate a sole source
modification for contract FA9401-17-C-0005 to Comcast Cable Communications, LLC, 4611 Montbel
PL NE, Albuquerque, NM 87107-6814.
The 58th Special Operations Wing has need to continue or install cable/internet in 9 buildings. Currently
8 of the buildings are receiving cable/internet from Comcast Cable Communications. There is no current
contract as payment is made via multiple Government Purchase Cards (GPC). Of the 8 buildings, four of
them are renting equipment from Comcast and four have purchased their equipment from Comcast. One
building currently has no cable connections and equipment will need to be installed.
Comcast is singled out as a potential sole source as award to a contractor other than Comcast would
result in significant duplication of costs due to the hardware installation fees and startup costs already
expended. Based on this reasoning, there is only one (1) contractor (Comcast Cable Communications,
LLC) who appears to be capable of performing these services with no service interruptions and without
added investment and start-up costs for 8 of the 9 buildings.
All responsible parties may identify their interest and submit a capability statement which will be
considered by the government. The capability statement must specifically address how their company can
overcome significant duplication of costs due to hardware installation fees and startup costs.
This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. Documentation submitted will not
exceed two (2) pages and will be submitted electronically to the cognizant Contract specialist listed in the
first paragraph above. A determination by the government not to compete with this proposed contract
action based upon responses to this notice is solely with the discretion of the government. Information
received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive
procurement.
