PerkinElmer is the publisher and only source for this commercial software due to exclusive licensing. NCATS utilizes this software to meet its needs for scientific data collection and management and has not identified any replacements or substitutes. Furthermore, this software has been utilized by NCATS for several years and supports extensive data requirements. The software is integrated into NCATS data ecosystem, and replacement would entail extensive configuration, data conversion, and user training. If the software renewals are not obtained, it will cause significant technical, schedule, and cost risk to mission-critical programs and data at NCATS. NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (NAICS) CODE The intended procurement is classified under NAICS code 513210, Software Publishers, with a Size Standard of $47 million. REGULATORY AUTHORITY The resultant contract will include all applicable provisions and clauses of the Federal acquisition Requlation (FAR) currently in effect at https://www.acquisition.gov/ STATUTORY AUTHORITY This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13�Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.5 in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1901. Simplified Acquisition Procedures. DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT Project Description NCATS uses an array of PerkinElmer Informatics software for acquiring, analyzing, and managing data generated in NCATS laboratories. NCATS inventory of PerkinElmer software and software subscriptions currently includes: ����������� ChemDraw Professional ����������� ChemBioOffice Enterprise Suite ����������� Signals ImageArtist ����������� Signals Notebook ����������� Tibco Spotfire and associated components ����������� E-Notebook electronic laboratory notebook These software products have been acquired using individual acquisitions across several years. Renewal dates are scattered through the year, which creates complexity in tracking renewals and requires numerous purchase orders. Demand for additional licenses has risen as NCATS has grown, more scientists have come to rely on these products, and NCATS has created a standardized environment for data collection and management. In addition, the delivery model of these products has shifted from local installation to subscription-based and/or cloud-hosted delivery. The objective of this acquisition is to bring all current licenses onto a common renewal cycle, to renew current licenses for PerkinElmer Informatics software as those renewals come due, and add or remove licenses and seats. Purpose and Objectives The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) requires annual renewal of licenses for software published by PerkinElmer Informatics as well as a streamlined arrangement to increase or decrease the number of licenses while maintaining a common renewal date for all PerkinElmer Informatics software licenses.
