- Description
- The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), on behalf of the Navy Program Executive Office for Enterprise Information Systems (PEO EIS) PMW-205, intends to award a sole-source task order under solicitation number N00039-16-R-0018 to Ridgewood Technology Partners, LLC, 11800 Sunrise Valley Drive, Suite 1450, Reston, Virginia 20191-5311. Award will be under the authority of the Multiple Award Schedules Program (GSA Federal Supply Schedule) per FAR 8.4. Justification to procure using other than full and open competition is made pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This effort represents a follow-on effort to contract N00039-14-C-5245, which was awarded to Ridgewood Technology Partners on a sole-source basis under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1). A follow-on sole-source effort is necessary because Ridgewood provides highly specialized services and it is likely that any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition. The contract will be issued on a firm-fixed-price basis for a one-year base year and four, one-year option periods. Ridgewood provides commercial software engineering support for a tool called COMPASS, which consists of a front-end user interface and a back-end logic engine. Ridgewood has restricted rights to the back-end logic engine, and the front-end user interface is dependent upon the back-end. The Government determined that competing the back-end logic engine would result in substantial duplication of costs and could result in compatibility issues with the already developed front-end. Front-end technology consists of the User Interface functionality of the COMPASS software, including user experience, static workflow, user interface logic, and user screens. The Government has Government Purpose Rights to the front-end technology. Back-end technology consists of the core functionality of the COMPASS software tool, including registration, backend workflow, administrative and REST Application Program Interface (API). The front-end technology is not functional without the back-end logic engine. The proposed sole-source effort will provide the following commercial services in the sustainment of the front-end user interface (COMPASS): Program Management; Software Engineering; Software Testing; Implementation and Integration Support; and User Training. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation of offers. However, all expressions of interest received within fifteen days after the date of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. Any submissions will not be reimbursed by the Government and the entire costs of any submission will be at the sole expense of the source submitting the information. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This synopsis is for information al purposes only. Any expressions of interest shall be submitted to Ian Robinson, Contract Specialist, at ian.robinson1@navy.mil The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541512.
