- Description
- Notice of Contract Action (NOCA) � Sole Source - Sources Sought This requirement is for MATLAB Enterprise Software License for AFRL � RV/RD This is a Notice of Proposed Contract Action under FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This notice is for information only; a solicitation will not be issued. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL.� No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 513210 with a size standard of $47M. Brief Description of Requirements: AFRL requires the purchase of a 3-year Enterprise License Agreement (ELA), Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract for MathWorks software and software maintenance. The products to be acquired under this contract consist of MathWorks software, including MATLAB, Simulink, and PolySpace product families as well as add-on toolkit and Blockset modules, which are available through the company�s commercial product list. In addition, this contract will provide maintenance, support, and license renewals in periods not to exceed one year. The exact quantities and delivery times are not known in advance.� Please see list of Bill of Materials (BOM) attached to this notice. Market research revealed that possible alternative mathematical software available on the open market would not be fully interoperable with the current MathWorks platform in use throughout AFRL/PRS nor do they possess the full suite of products required. This NOCA is part of a market research effort to assess industry capabilities that will best address the AFRL/PK needs described in this NOCA. MathWorks is not directly available through a pre-existing Government-wide contract or DoD Enterprise Software Agreement. The Government intends to negotiate a sole-source contract for the purchase of the software licenses and maintenance described above. The identified sole-source provider/producer of these systems is as follows: THE MATHWORKS, INC 3 APPLE HILL DR MATICK, MA 01760 The Government believes that award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the Air Force�s requirements including duplicative acquisition planning, coordination, and evaluation, as well as costs related to training, installation, software development, engineering, maintenance, and support, that is not expected to be recovered through competition. This is a notice of proposed contract action and NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. All inquiries should be sent on or before 21 December 2023 by 9:00 a.m. EST by email to tyler.breedlove.1@spaceforce.mil and caroline.salazar.1@us.af.mil.� Responses to this notice must be submitted by the date/time listed on the notice. Any responses to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. Only responses received by this date will be considered.� Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 05 January 2024. A Sole Source Justification will be attached to the subsequent Notice of Award in accordance with applicable regulation.
