- Description
- ***PLEASE CONTACT AUDREY NELSON/ARCS WITH ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS OR TO SUBMIT CAPABILITIES TO AUDREY.C.NELSON-1@NASA.GOV *** NASA/MSFC has a requirement for the maintenance renewal and annual support for the Wind River source code, VxWorks 653 operating system, and Simics 5 Pre-Configured Virtual Platform licenses to support the ES53 Lab. NASA/MSFC intends to purchase Wind River Software Licenses on a sole source basis from USI Electronics, the Wind River authorized Government distributor. Wind River software is part of the real-time software code, unit and formal testing of hardware models without physical hardware, and other SLS jobs. The Wind River VxWorks 653, source code, and Simics 5 allows the Flight Software teams to integrate crucial aspects of their processes and adopt new development techniques. Competition is impractical due to the proprietary nature of Wind River's VxWorks 653 and Simics 5. The NASA MSFC Avionics & Software Ground Systems Branch requires Wind River software to provide renewals for VxWorks 653 operating system, and Simics 5 Pre-Configured Virtual Platform licenses in support of the Space Launch System (SLS) vehicle flight software design. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 05/06/2019 by 12:00 p.m. CST. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html. ***PLEASE CONTACT AUDREY NELSON/ARCS WITH ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS OR TO SUBMIT CAPABILITIES TO AUDREY.C.NELSON-1@NASA.GOV *** NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (30-APR-2019); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE.
