- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. Simplified procedures as described in FAR 12.3 will be used for acquisition of these commercial items. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation Number N00421-02-T-0067 is being released using simplified acquisition procedures as described in Federal Acquisition Regulation 12.3, and is therefore issued as a request for quote (RFQ). The incorporated document and provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 97-27 and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplement Change Notice 20001213. The Government intends to award a contract on a "brand name mandatory" basis for Microsoft Corporation software under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Contract type will be firm-fixed price. Microsoft Corporation is the sole manufacturer of the software currently in use in the existing systems. The use of another manufacturer's software would not guarantee the conversion of existing files to an accurate or usable format because no other manufacturer makes a software application that is 100% interoperable and compatible with the Microsoft applications currently in use. Due to the proprietary nature of Microsoft technical information, as described in FAR 27.401, "Restricted computer software," and DFARS 227.7202-1(c)(1), Microsoft is the sole manufacturer with the exclusive technical capabilities to fulfill the Government's minimum requirements.
