INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE

FLIR Model T1020 Thermal Imager with no radio option

SS-TIGTA-23-110

The Bureau of the Fiscal Service, on behalf of the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA), intends to make an award on a sole source basis to Teledyne Flir, 550 Main Street Rm 5-491, Cincinnati, OH 45202.

This product is solely offered by Teledyne Flir. Teledyne Flir developed and owns the propriety and patented software and algorithms that are used in these products and support the services specifically required for this acquisition; thereby the proposed source has the sole unique technical and other resources required for this acquisition. Teledyne is the only vendor that will remove the embedded GPS from the equipment without voiding the warranty. TFSD cannot have embedded GPS because the transmissions from the GPS will interfere with investigative jobs.

Subject to final approval, The Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS), on behalf of the TIGTA, intends to negotiate a sole-source procurement in accordance with FAR 6.302-1, to Teledyne Flir, 550 Main Street Rm 5-491, Cincinnati, OH 45202 for Teledyne FLIR Thermal Imager.
