- Description
- This Special Notice is to notify potential bidders to a draft Request for Quotes (RFQ) for industry review and comment. The draft RFQ is posted on the following website: www.hpcmo.hpc.mil/Htdocs/TI/TI07/2006APR24_TI2007_RFQPhaseI_v1.pdf Note: This is a DRAFT Request for Quotations (RFQ), and vendors are not expected to submit proposals at this time. This draft RFQ is issued in an effort to promote early exchange of information between the Government and industry. This draft RFQ will allow potential bidders to judge whether or how they can satisfy the Government?s requirements, and possibly enhance the Government?s ability to obtain quality supplies and services, at reasonable prices, and increase efficiency in bid preparation, evaluation, negotiation and Delivery Order award. This draft RFQ does not bind the Government to issue a final version of the RFQ, nor to award any Delivery Order as a result. This draft RFQ is for planning purposes only, and should be used as such. A final RFQ Phase I is expected for release on or about 12 May 2006. The Department of Defense (DoD) High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) is seeking initial quotes for a uniform range of HPC system configurations and associated maintenance against GSA Schedule 70 contracts to address the non-real time HPC requirements for its user base of scientists and engineers located from across the DoD Research and Development and Test and Evaluation Laboratories. HPCMP sites hosting these HPC resources include Major Shared Resource Centers (MSRCs), selected Allocated Distributed Centers (ADCs), and Dedicated HPC Project Investments (DHPIs). Information obtained from responses to this initial Phase I RFQ will be used to determine competitive offerings that could potentially address HPCMP user requirements. No awards will be made from the initial RFQ. On or about 6 Sep 2006 a final RFQ (Phase II) for one or more specific HPCMP funded sites will be sought. General information is provided below and in the attachments to give Offerors an understanding of the terms and conditions which may be required for systems and services acquired. The following attachments generally reflect HPCMP requirements: Terms and Conditions; Acceptance Testing; Warranty and Maintenance; Acceptance Test Plan template and DD254 Security Requirements. These are draft documents that may be changed when Phase II of the RFQ is released. The Government may make multiple awards using the Phase II RFQ; however, the Government also reserves the right not to make any award if deemed in its best interest.
