This is a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT under the authority of FAR 13.501. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) intends to solicit and negotiate directly with SITA Information Networking Computing USA Inc. (SITA) for services to electronically transmit airline data to CBP. The CBP Office of Information and Technology (OIT) Enterprise Data Management and Engineering Directorate (EDMED) has a continuing requirement to electronically obtain Passenger Name Records (PNR), air cargo manifests, and other airline-related data and messaging in support of CBP's mission, and statutory and regulatory requirements, to screen people and cargo entering and exiting the United States. CBP intends to award a contract without considering other awardees pursuant to RFO 16.507-6. A large number of commercial air carriers currently interface with DHS to provide the required information and many of these DHS carrier partners have exclusive commercial agreements with SITA to utilize SITA’s network to provide information to DHS. SITA’s services include an extensive multi-national carrier industry network and communications solutions which enable both our carrier industry partners and DHS to securely transmit data and support DHS’s anti-terrorism mission as required. Air carriers have commercial agreements with SITA to securely transmit passenger and cargo information and provide DHS with two-way communication, as required, via SITA’s approved interface and the usage of SITA’s proprietary software (Runway). Failure to continue the current SITA support services would disavow those carriers currently serviced by SITA preventing them from being able to comply with US government mandates. This is a firm-fixed price (FFP) Contract for services. A FFP type will provide maximum incentive for the contractor to control costs and perform effectively and impose a minimum administrative burden upon the contracting parties, reducing technical, schedule, and cost risk to the Government. The Government determined the work described in the Statement of Work (SOW) is definitive enough where it can be priced with a reasonable degree of confidence; therefore, FFP was selected as the appropriate contract type.

What this source notice establishes

The label describes explicit language in the synchronized official notice. A protest-related notice does not establish a GAO ruling, protest disposition or procurement violation. Follow-on or recompete language is not independent confirmation of an approved future procurement.

No winning company, loss by a particular company, transaction obligation or total contract value is inferred from the title or narrative. Silence, expiration, cancellation and another company’s award are not treated as a company loss.

This is a dated reference, not a claim that a notice was posted today. Removal from the active opportunity feed does not itself withdraw a historical notice. STN rechecks the latest completed stored source snapshot for this notice, including corrections and withholding decisions, before serving this page. Unavailable evidence is not replaced by a demonstration record.
