- Description
- The purpose of this notice of intent is to notify the commercial market of the Government’s intent to extend the award of annual software maintenance support services to Unisys Corporation. This requirement will be made on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1(a)(C)(ii). Unisys Corporation is the only source who can meet the needs of the Internal Revenue Service in support of tax filing season. The IRS is deeply invested in a host of CA products that are used by nearly every application and developer on every IBM mainframe platform. While the use of these products varies greatly, several products are very heavily used, have been highly customized over time and have been in place for more than a decade. These are proprietary products of Computer Associates and are the only items compatible with the existing processing environment. The named vendor is the exclusive licensed distributor of proprietary software solutions available only through Unisys through a re-seller arrangement. The products are one hundred percent compatible with our existing equipment and required for proper maintenance and operation of our mainframe environment in support of tax processing. Continuity of results is only guaranteed with the use of the CA software. This notice of intent to award should not be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a formal Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ) or contract. Responses to the notice of intent to award will not serve as proposals, bids or offers which could be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. As such, the Government will not cover any costs for any information or inquiry submitted as a result of this request. Please include the name of the point of contact, e-mail address and telephone number should the Government have questions regarding individual responses. Please note: A SOLICITATION DOES NOT EXIST. Any comments should be sent to the attention of Tonya H. Yeldell by e-mail to: Tonya.H.Yeldell@irs.gov. The reference number for this announcement is Q9QF0100M02002. If no compelling responses are received, the award for this requirement will be made to Unisys Corporation.
