- Description
- The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) intends to negotiate and award a sole source contract to Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC). This is a follow-on research contract which focuses on enhancing waterborne transport models by incorporating additional data, increasing functionality, and refining the interfaces between models. At the conclusion of the effort, the capabilities of the waterborne transport models will be greatly enhanced, and will be integrated with Joint Effects Model (JEM) and the JEM S&T Prototype/Hazard Prediction and Assessment Capability (JSTP/HPAC) through refined interfaces. The result will be a waterborne transport capability that is user friendly and appropriate for both super-user analytical runs, as well as operational runs by general users through the JSTP/HPAC and JEM user interface. This effort will further develop models such that a complete set of tools for modeling waterborne transport and dispersion of materials can be transitioned to the JEM program of record and JSTP/HPAC for integration. The waterborne tools will be established in such a way that they interface with current systems so that end-users can predict the transport and dispersion of materials in strictly water-based scenarios, in addition to water/air environments in which material can be passed back and forth between mediums.. The period of performance contemplated for this effort is three years. This requirement will result in a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is 541711 and the Product Service Code (PSC) is AD92. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. Responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by the agency. Interested parties have fifteen (15) days from the date of this notice, to submit in writing, to the identified point of contact, clear and convincing evidence of their qualifications and/or capabilities. Such qualifications and/or capabilities will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. Responses received after fifteen (15) days, or without the required information, will be considered non-responsive to this synopsis and will not be considered. A determination by the Government not to conduct this effort as a full-and-open competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely with the Government's discretion. In the absence of qualified sources, a contract will be awarded under the Other than Full and Open Competition procedures, pursuant to 10 United States Code (U.S.C.) 2304(c)(1) or 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source. All inquiries must be submitted in writing to the address or facsimile number stated herein and to the attention of Mr. Brian Nuckols, Contracting Officer. Response to this notice must be received by 4:30 PM EST, September 11, 2013. Responses must include your business name, point of contact, address, and telephone number with area code. Telephonic inquiries will not be accepted. Requests may be emailed to brian.nuckols@dtra.mil.
