- Description
- This synopsis is hereby issued in accordance with FAR Part 5.201. The purpose of this synopsis is to announce the Department of the Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific's intent to award a commercial, Firm-Fixed-Price purchase order on a noncompetitive basis with DS Government Solutions. (CAGE: 7A6S5) of 175 Wyman St. Waltham, MA. The requirement is a routine procurement of the CST Studio Suite Software. This renewal includes the CST Studio Suite Package, the CST Studio Suite Package (Nodelocked), the CST Studio Suite EDA Import Token, the CST Studio Antenna Magus and the CST Studio Suite Acceleration Tokens. The required period of performance is twelve (12) months after award. The Government intends to negotiate solely with DS Government Solutions under the authority of FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The justification is as follows. CST Studio is the only source that meets the Government's critical requirements. There are no other viable alternatives available. The minimum attribute that sets DS Government Solutions apart is that only DS Government Solutions can provide the CST software and corresponding maintenance support. All previous electromagnetic ISR simulation and R&D efforts were designed, modeled and tested using this software. If any other software were purchased, all previously developed intellectual property would be lost. Based on the approved Justification for Non-Competitive Procurement (JNCP), the agency has identified only one responsible source and no other supplier will satisfy agency requirements. The applicable NAICS Code is 511210 ""Software Publishers"" and the business size standard is $41,500,000. Please be advised that the aforementioned information is anticipatory in nature and is not binding. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this synopsis, and must clearly show the firm's ability to be responsive without compromising quality, accuracy, and reliability. Capability statements, comments, questions, or concerns regarding this notice shall be submitted via e-mail ONLY to james.davenport4@navy.mil by 24 FEB 2021. All responses received before this date will be considered by the Government for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. To respond to this announcement, you must be registered to the NIWC E-Commerce website at https://e-commerce.sscno.nmci.navy.mil and upload your inquiry under NIWC Pacific/Simplified Acquisitions/N66001-21-Q-6165.
