Description

NASA/LaRC has a requirement for a one (1) day innovation characteristics workshop at LaRC in support of the Strategic Relationship Office.

NASA/LaRC intends to purchase the service from Idea Connection Systems, Inc., to utilize their proprietary tool, Innovation Style Preference Indicator, to diagnose the ways individuals innovate, problem solve, and make decisions. It would take substantial duplication of resources and time for another source to provide the same service, and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered through competition.

The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.

Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on 8/4/2009. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government.

Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.

All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency.

An Ombudsman has been appointed. See NASA Specific Note “B”.
