- Description
- The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to Avenza Systems, Inc. This combined synopsis/solicitation is posted with the intent of awarding to Avenza Systems, Inc., 124 Merton Street, Suite 400, Toronto, Ontario, M4S272 (Canada). These items are the sole proprietary product of the vendor and no other authorized resellers are anticipated. The requirement is for the following Avenza items: CLIN0001: P/N – MAPublisher Floating Licenses version upgrade from LT Version to Version 7.3. (Qty = 150 each) Period of Performance: 04/01/2008 through 03/31/2009 BRAND NAME JUSTIFICATION: MAPublisher is a proprietary software application made by Avenza Systems, Inc. Selection of a different product would not be compatible with our customers needs as this software is used to support the essential functionality of the product that enables Adobe Illustrator in use by the Analytic Production Operations to natively read the data from ESRI ArcGIS used by NGA Analysts. Due to the fact that this software is already integrated into the NGA enterprise it would be extremely costly for the Agency to switch to a new type of software. A switch at this juncture would cause personnel to have to be trained to use new software and NGA would suffer unacceptable production delays due to the implementation of any new software. Delivery is FOB Destination to NGA – Washington Navy Yard, Attn: Covert Beach/PZIE, 1200 First Street, MS: N-024, Washington, DC 20303-0001 in the quantities listed above.
