NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE – Shaw, Bransford & Roth, P.C.

NAICS Code 541199 - All Other Legal Services

PSC R418 - SUPPORT- PROFESSIONAL: LEGAL

The U. S. International Trade Commission (USITC or Commission) intends to solicit and award a Purchase Order to Shaw, Bransford & Roth, P.C, 1100 Connecticut Avenue, N.W. Suite 900, Washington DC 20036-4114, under the authority of FAR 6.302-2, Unusual and Compelling Urgency.

The USITC anticipates award of a Purchase Order, on a sole source basis, to Shaw, Bransford & Roth. The Commission has an urgent and compelling need for litigation and legal advice services, and following normal competitive procedures would result in unacceptable delays for the agency. This highly sensitive work requires immediate action because of actual conflicts of interest or lack of sufficient objectivity of Agency personnel, and a lack of other resources in-house to provide these services. The contractor capable of providing these highly specialized services must be able to begin work immediately to provide high-quality litigation services for the agency, meet litigation deadlines, and mitigate the agency's liability.

The period of performance:

February 1, 2025 to April 30, 2025

This notice is not a request for competitive quotations. A Request for Quote will not be available for this requirement. The intent of this solicitation is for informational purposes only. However, any information received within five days after the date of publication of this notice will be considered by the Government. Information in response to this notice may be sent to Meaghann Peak, Contracting Officer, at meaghann.peak@usitc.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete this action is solely within the discretion of the Government. Telephonic questions or requests are strongly discouraged.
