- Description
- Arcata Associates, Inc. has a requirement for 38 each to upgrade Dices VoIP Stations Arcata Associates, Inc./DFRC intends to purchase the items from QUINTRON SYSTEMS, INC 2105 South Blosser Road Santa Maria, CA 93458. This procurement is to upgrade our current DICES VoIP Stations; This purchase upgrades our current DICES VoIP stations a higher capacity circuit listing, allowing up to 30 keys, and upgraded software. Quintron Systems will be responsible for delivering the additional key sets for the VoIP System. Quintron Systems is the only known source that is capable of upgrading these stations that will work with the existing Central equipment and VoIP Stations and since it is a proprietary equipment to Quintron Systems this systemwill be used for NASA Dryden's Digital Communications System throughout WATR.Quintron Systems was the chosen supplier originally for this system and will have to be used to purchase additional proprietary equipment. No other source is an option due to the proprietary nature of this System. This is an upgrade to current VoIP Stations, to work with the current VoIP System that is already in place. Buying similar equipment from another source will not allow the equipment to talk to one another. Once our NASA customer has decided to replace this system then all requirements will be put into a statement of work and it will be put out for full and open competition to ensure NASA receives the best product at the best prices. This system replacement will be extremely costly and with the current status of Government funding it is more cost efficient to stay with the existing system. Arcata Associates,Inc. intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 2:30 p.m. Pacific time on August 12, 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 Arcata Associates, Inc. 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 Arcata Associates, Inc.
