- Description
- Sole Source Justification for COBOL Support The IRS Office of Information Technology Acquisition, Tier 2/3 Support Branch, intends to negotiate a Sole Source Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order for MicroFocus COBOL Annual Software Maintenance for Automated Substitute for Return (ASFR) program, 295 Murall Drive, Kearneysville, WV 25430. Market research conducted by acquisition personnel has determined that MicroFocus COBOL software is proprietary and therefore any software maintenance renewals are required to be obtained directly from MicroFocus. This fact was confirmed, in writing, by representatives from MicroFocus. The software maintenance is necessary to maintain the functionality of existing software, which is imperative for Automated Substitute for Return's (ASFR) mission.
