CLIN 0001 - McCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) each McCabe Tools or Equal, design complexity tool for Ada 83, Battlemap w/analysis. CLIN 0002 - McCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) each, McCabe Tools or Equal, Instrumentation with Slice for Ada 83. CLIN 0003 - McCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) each McCabe Tools or Equal, CodeBreaker for Ada 83. CLIN 0004 - MCCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) each, McCabe Tools or Equal, BattlePlan for Ada 83. CLIN 0005 - MCCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) each, McCabe Tools or Equal, Additional Ada 95 Language Parser. CLIN 0006 McCABE TOOLS OR EQUAL: The contractor shall provide one (1) year software maintenance for CLINs 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004 and 0005. The Government requires that these items, CLINs 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004 and 0005 are McCabe Tools or equal, and that they meet the following minimum functional and performance specifications: 1. SOFTWARE COMPREHENSION: The software shall provide a graphical display of a software system's design and architecture in a fashion that: (1a) Superimposes metrics on structure charts to sensitize complexity measurement to architecture, (1b) Shows the calling structure of a system, (1c) Shows the cyclomatic complexity and degree of structure for each module, and (1d) Allows graphical access to module source code and flow graphs. 2. SOFTWARE QUALITY: The software shall be able to: (2a) Perform an automatic correlation of metrics, (2b) Quantify the maximum number of linearly independent paths through a module of code, (2c) Quantify the actual number of independent paths tested during the test phase. (2d) Quantify the cyclomatic complexity of a module's structure as it relates to calls to other modules, (2e) Quantify the number of lines of code and comments in a module, (2f) Quantify the length of a module as measured by the number of operators and operands, (2g) Measure the degree to which a module contains unstructured constructs, (2h) Measure the amount of interaction between modules in a system, (2i) Measure the amount of integration testing necessary to minimize errors, and (2j) Measure the cyclomatic complexity of a module's structure as it relates to global and parameter data. 3. SOFTWARE TESTING: The software shall support test management by providing: (3a) The cyclomatic complexity of source code at the unit level as measured statically, (3b) The number of tests required to traverse each independent path in a module, (3c) A basis set of test conditions and test paths which will ensure mathematically complete unit testing when executed, (3d) A graphical display of test paths superimposed on regular module flow graphs, (3e) The cyclomatic complexity of source code at the system level as measured statically, (3f) Structure charts showing a sufficient set of subtrees to complete integration testing, (3g) Calling information for modules to descendants and back to aid in planning integration testing and verifying code against design, (3h) A graphical display showing the degree (full, partial, untested) of modules tested at the system level, and (3i) A graphical display showing how much unit testing and integration testing that must be done to complete a project. 4. SOFTWARE DOCUMENTATION AND REPORTS: The software shall support management reviews by providing: (4a) Graphic and textual reports and the information in items 1 - 3 above, (4b) Design documentation such as structure charts, test paths and metrics, and (4c) Report output in encapsulated postscript, HPGL and ASCII. CLINs 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004 and 0005 shall be delivered and accepted at AAAV Technology Center, DRPM AAAV, DEPT # 203d, 991 Annapolis Way - Room 235, Woodbridge, VA no later than ten (10) calendar days after contract award. The provision at FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors-Commercial, applies to this acquisition . For evaluation purposes, the provision at FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation-Commercial Items, shall apply. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: Technical capability, past performance, and price. The offerors shall identify where the offered items meet or does not meet each of the Governments functional and performance minimum specifications listed herein. Any offeror who submits a quotation on an ''equal product'' is required to clearly identify the item by brand name, if any, and make or model number, and provide literature (e.g., catalog, description, etc.) which shows that the offered product meets the salient functional and performance characteristics as listed herein. The offerors shall provide the names, contact points, and telephone numbers of three (3) commercial or government customers that are currently using the items being offered for purposes of past performance evaluation. Technical capability and past performance, when combined are significantly more important than price. Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications-Commercial Items, with its offer. The provision at FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items, apply to this acquisition. The provision at FAR 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required To Implement Statutes or Executive Orders-Commercial Items, Subparagraphs (a), (b)(1), (6), (7), (8), (9) (10), (14), (d) and (e), apply to this acquisition and are hereby incorporated by reference. The provision at DFARS 252.210-7000, ''Brand Name or Equal'' apply to this acquisition. Offers are due in the Commander, Marine Corps Systems Command, Code CTC, 3033 Wilson Blvd., Room 321, Arlington VA 22201 no later than 2:00 p.m. on 19 September 1996.
