- The US Army Corps of Engineers - Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Geospatial Research Laboratory (GRL) intends to award a sole source, firm fixed-price purchase order to Meadowgate Technologies (DUNS: 149275609; CAGE Code: 3XAG2) for one NVIDIA DGX Station Multi-GPU Desktop system in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1). Our market research has shown that the manufacturer of this product currently uses only Meadowgate Technologies as an authorized reseller. The NVIDIA DGX Station Supercomputer is unique because it is the only system on the market that meets all 3 of the following specifications: • Pre-loaded with the following deep learning algorithm frameworks: PyTorch, TensorFlow,, Caffe, and Caffe2, MXNet; in addition to deep learning user software such as NVIDIA Digits. • The DGX Station comes pre-configured with multiple NVIDIA state of the art GPUs that are compatible with the CUDA and CUDNN libraries that are required to run the majority of deep learning techniques. No other manufacturer currently manufactures a GPU with anything near the capability of the NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPU nor do GPUs other than those manufactured by NVIDIA allow for accelerated processing using CUDA and CUDNN (i.e. these libraries are only compatible with NVIDIA GPUs). • The unit is portable which will enable experimentation with in-field data processing at the point of collection Performance Requirements FPUs 4X Telsa V100 TFLOPS (GPU FP 16) 480 GPY Memory 64GB Total System NVIDIA Tensor Cores 2,560 NVIDIA CUDA Cores 20,480 CPU Intel Xeon E5-2698v4 2.2 GHz (20 Core) System Memory 256GB LRDIMM DDR4 Storage Data: 3X 1.92 TB SSD RADIO OS: 1X 1.92TB SSD Network Dual 10Gb LAN Display 3X DisplayPort, 4K Resolution Acoustics < 35 dB System Weight 88 lbs / 40 kg Maximum Power Requirements 1,500 W Operating Temperature Range 10-30 Degrees Celsius Software Ubuntu Desktop Linux OS DGX Recommended GPU Driver CUDA Toolkit The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334111 Electronic Computer Manufacturing, with a size standard of 1,250 employees.
