- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),, Simplified Acquisition Team intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with MDA Mind Box using procedures in FAR Parts 6 and 13. The Office of Information Systems Division has a requirement for systems software, maintenance support for ArtEnterpriseis COTS Software. ArtEnterpriseis COTS software provides CO-OPS with the ability to build rule based and case-based reasoning applications for performing real-time quality control monitoring on all data that it receives as well as detecting erroneous data and preventing its dissemination to the public. Renewal of the maintenance agreement is required to insure that CO-OPS ArtEnterprise applications continue to operate properly and to allow continued telephone support to CO-OPS developers. MDA Mindbox, Inc. is the only party known to NOAA who can meet these requirements since it is the manufacturer of the ART Enterprise products and the only provider of its software maintenance. MindBox is the only company that maintains, updates, and supports the software product. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 41 USC 253(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) for this acquisition is 511210 with a Small Business Size Standard of $23.0M. This is not a solicitation for competitive quotes. However, if any other interested party believes that it can meet the requirements, it may submit a statement of capabilities, which if timely received, will be considered by NOAA. The capability statement and any other information furnished must be in writing, and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NOAA to determine if the party can meet all of the foregoing requirements. Responses must also be accompanied by descriptive literature, warranties, and/or other information that demonstrates that the quote meets all of the foregoing requirements. Capability statements and related materials must be e-mailed to Amy.Sanderswhite@noaa.gov or faxed to (301) 713-0808 by September 4, 2010. Award will be made using FAR 13, Simplified acquisition procedures, current through FAC 2005-44. The determination to compete or not to compete the proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
