## Description

NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract contract in accordance with RFO 6.201-1, “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements”. The Reference Number is A061294.

The 628th Contracting Squadron (628 CONS), 101 E. Hill Blvd, Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina (JB CHS}, intends to award a sole source contract for the rental of the flight deck on the USS Yorktown in support of the 2026 Charleston Air Show. 628 CONS intends to solicit and award a sole source contract to Patriots Point Development Authority, CAGE 5GC82, of Mount Pleasant, SC. Market research was performed and information gathered in determining this company to be a suitable source for this requirement.

In accordance with RFO 5.101(c)(4)(vii), the proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with a sole source due to the unique location and nature of the facility being a World War II aircraft carrier positioned along Charleston Harbor. There are no other comparable locations, and the government would not benefit by competing this requirement among other possible sources.

This notice of intent to award is not a request for competitive proposals; however, responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

Address responses and/or questions regarding this announcement to Matthew Michel, Contracting Officer, at matthew.michel@us.af.mil. Responses must be received no later than 12:00pm Eastern Time on 28 April 2026.
