- Description
- This Notice of Proposed Contract Action is prepared and posted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.201(b)(1) and Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) 205.205-71. The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) intends to solicit, negotiate, and award a firm-fixed-price, follow-on contract under the simplified acquisition threshold from a single source, Comsol, Inc. (100 District Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803-5043, as authorized by FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The CO has determined that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available; market research conducted by technical experts revealed that Comsol is the only fully integrated physics simulator capable of incorporating multidisciplinary simulations required for electrical and mechanical semiconductor effects required for successful culmination of DMEA projects. Although the proposed contract action will be solicited from a single source, all responsible sources may contact the CO to submit a bid, proposal, or quotation which will be considered by the agency. The proposed contract action will be awarded as a purchase order under FAR Part 12 and DFARS Part 212, Acquisition of Commercial Items, and FAR Part 13 and DFARS Part 213, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The proposed contract will include firm-fixed-price contract line item number(s) (CLIN(s)) for the required Comsol modules, and associated software maintenance and support. The proposed contract action will have a period of performance of one (1) year, and may include an additional option year. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code for the requirement is 511210 for Software Publishers. The small business size standard for the requirement, as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration, is $38.5 Million annual revenue. Comsol, Inc. is a large business for the applicable NAICS. In accordance with FAR 6.001(a), procurements awarded using the simplified acquisition procedures of FAR Part 13 are not subject to the competition requirements of FAR Part 6 and the requirement to prepare a written sole source justification in accordance with FAR 6.303 does not apply. As the proposed contract action will be solicited from a single source, a copy of the written solicitation will not be made available on FedBizOpps. A copy of the non-competitive solicitation may be requested from the Contracting Officer, Ms. Nickie Cruthirds, by e-mailing nickie.cruthirds@dmea.osd.mil. The CO intends to solicit, negotiate, and award to Comsol, Inc. by 12 May 2017.
