1.           The 10th Mission Support Group, Directorate of Contracting, United States Air Force Academy Colorado, intends to award a single source firm fixed price purchase order to procure shipping, insurance and installation services for a 3100lb, 24? wingspan, falcon statue from Frostad Atelier, the foundry manufacturing the statue.    

2.           The duplication of effort and cost that would be incurred by utilizing a separate shipping, insurance and installation contractor is not considered of benefit to the government.     Frostad is the company contracted by the Artist of the statue and they are the only source proper for pre-shipping activities and acquisition of appropriate insurance and transport, off-loading and erection of the statue. The statue is a unique piece of art and Frostad is the only company with the necessary knowledge to erect the statue. Delivery will be made by 16 January 2008.     The North America Industry Classification System Code [NAICS] is 238990 and the size standard is $13,000,000.00. All responsible sources may submit a response, which if timely received, will be considered by 10MSG/LGCA.     This synopsis is for notification purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for bids or proposals.            

3.                 Any company that feels they can meet the requirements as stated above without impact to the current operation of the USAFA CECC must submit their technical data (2 pages or less) to support their claim no later than 10 January 2007.     The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this synopsis.

4.           This procurement is for the acquisition of a sole source commercial service using simplified procedures in accordance with FAR Parts 12 & 13.     This office intends to award a contract by other than full and open competition in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(2) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

5.           5352.201-9101 OMBUDSMAN (AUG 2005)

(a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the party to another official who can resolve the concern.

(b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, concerned parties may contact the USAF Academy Ombudsmen,
