- Description
- **********PLEASE CONTACT DENECE NORRIS(ARCS), ONLY, IN WRITING TO denece.a.norris@nasa.gov or FAX (256)-544-6560, WITH ANY CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. CONTACT INFORMATION IS ALSO IN THE BODY OF THIS SOLICITATION************* NASA/MSFC has a requirement for ImaGen Rackmount Servers with a Maintenance Contract. NASA/MSFC intends to purchase these products from Concurrent Computer Corp. on a sole source basis. Competition is impractical for the following reasons: 1. Because of the complexity of the real-time computing, the systems running the real-time operating system must be certified by the provider of the systems. 2. Any new systems purchased without this operating system would not be compatible with existing systems already in use in the various labs. 3. The software deployed on these systems would require re-verification and possibly re-design, therefore, would result in significant schedule delays and labor costs. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to Denece A. Norris(ARCS) by email, denece.a.norris@nasas.gov or fax (256)544-5028 no later than 4:30 p.m. CST on February 20, 2013. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84(NOV 2011), Ombudsman, is applicable. The official point of contact is Michael R. Sosebee; however, all questions/offers shall be submitted to Denece A. Norris(ARCS) at denece.a.norris@nasa.gov, or faxed to (256)544-6560.
