- This notice is amended to annotate that the correct Solicitation number is FA910115-C-0037. Interested offerors should reference FA9101-15-C-0037 when inquiriing about Domain Connectivity Software. ___________________________________________________________________ NOTICE OF INTENT TO USE OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION: Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC), Arnold AFB TN intends to award a contract to Parallel Geometrical Algorithms, LLC, 1264 Riesling Terrace, Sunnyvale, CA 94087-2313, to develop a domain connectivity software application that will be utilized in a high fidelity, physics-based, multi-flow solver paradigm. The Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program (DoD HPCMP) is currently developing a Computational Research and Engineering Acquisition Tools and Environment for Air Vehicles (CREATE-AV). Two of the three physics-based simulation software products being developed as part of the program are Kestrel and Helios. Kestrel delivers virtual design test and analysis capabilities for fixed-wing aircraft (full spectrum-fighter, bomber, tanker, reconnaissance, etc.) while Helios provides that same capability for rotary-wing aircraft. The CREATE-AV Helios and Kestrel software products utilize a "dual mesh" paradigm. Specifically, this is either a "strand" grid or "unstructured" grid near to a surface geometry (of an aircraft) to resolve boundary effects, and a high-order Cartesian system of grids away from the body. The desired organization must have the ability to develop the grid assembly software application that will enable efficient interpolation between the strand (unstructured) grid and the far-field (Cartesian) grid. This dual mesh combination present a novel and very powerful paradigm that none of the other commonly used domain connectivity tools is currently exploiting. Exploitation of these attributes is the critical path to development of both Kestrel and Helios. The capability captured by this unique paradigm enables true automation of domain connectivity, is highly scalable, and enables efficient memory use. The contract deliverables consist of the following: Software: Modules that can be integrated into the CREATE-AV common Scalable Infrastructure (CSI) for PUNDIT and OSCAR are deliverables of the contract. Support: The CREATE-AV Quality Assurance (QA) Group provides direct support to users of CREATE-AV software products. The contractor resolves software code issues in response to prioritized requirements set by the CREATE-AV configuration Control Board. Documentation (Developer's Guide): Updates that result from an updated release cycle, or intermediate product updates in response to issue resolution activities shall include corresponding updates to the Developer's Guide. The contractor shall provide a Developer's Guide that provides a technical description of the algorithms used, defines the module API and date requirements, and documents the unit and integration tests provided for the software modules delivered. This synopsis is approved for a sole source contract action as authorized in FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. No solicitation package will be issued. However, all interested sources may identify their interest but must provide proof of capability to provide an acceptable product by submitting an accurate description of the equipment offered, made, and model numbers of the equipment, pricing data, and warranties. Only responses containing this data will be considered for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Award will not be made on the basis of responses received to this synopsis. Responses must be electronically sent to Miriam J. Harris, Miriam.Harris.1@us.af.mil. If no favorable responses are received by 200 PM CST on 26 August 2015, a contract will be negotiated with the above named source.
