U099 - SOLE SOURCE - CHICAGO BOOTH SCHOOL OF BUSINESS EXECUTIVE EDUCATION PROGRAM

IAW FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services, NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk, Mechanicsburg Office, intends to award a SoleSource Firm Fixed Price contract to The University of Chicago for three (3) Captains to attend the university's High Performance Leadership course as part of the Executive Education Program.

This action is justified to be sole source. As the executive education programs are run and scheduled by the schools, the DON has little to no input on when and where they occur. Captains are provided with a list of Executive Development training opportunities so that they may select the session which meets their needs regarding factors including location and schedule.

Any challenges to this sole source must be received in writing and sent to kaitlin.n.obrien.civ@us.navy.mil. To be considered by the Government, challenges must include information sufficient to enable the Government to make a determination that an equivalent service exists which would meet the Government's needs as stated herein. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
