- Description
- Notice of Intent (NOI):� Under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) intends to issue a sole-source award for the National System for Geospatial-Intelligence (NSG) Enterprise Repository and Virtual Environment (NERVE) requirement. The NERVE requirement is a follow-on to the SONIC Strike contract (HM047619D0003). The scope of NERVE includes NSG Consolidated Library (NCL) modernization and recapitalization, sensor integration, and support to emerging architectures, in addition to the baseline NCL operations and sustainment support included in SONIC Strike. The NERVE Contract award will be made to BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc. (BAE), located at 10920 Technology Pl., San Diego, CA 92127 (Unique Entity ID: FNZGNWHTXVL4). After extensive Market Research including a thorough review of interested vendors, NGA has determined BAE is the only source available to satisfy the requirements. Pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii), the �services may be deemed available only from the original source in case of follow-on contracts for the continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in � (A) substantial duplication of cost to the government that is not expected to be recovered through competition; or (B) unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency�s requirements.� The NERVE requirement is to provide the NSG User Community with sustained support of, and access to, NCL GEOINT data, products, and capabilities while modernizing these capabilities to a cloud-based solution. In addition to providing 24x7 Tier-2/3 system support, the requirement includes support of the existing NCL baseline, which consists of more than 2.7M Source Lines of Code (SLOC). The NCL software, which currently resides in both the East and West data centers, integrates with the NSG architecture, interfaces with internal and external clients, and manages an extensive 66 Petabytes (PB) of NSG data holdings. BAE has in place the infrastructure, baseline, capabilities, and established interfaces necessary to complete the required tasks. The period of performance for this requirement is one (1) base year, and four (4) one-year options. This notice is in accordance with FAR Subpart 5.2, and is not a request for competitive proposals.
