A -- CONTINUE ADP SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT UNDER EXISTING CONTRACT SOL DE-RP01-99EH12345 DUE 091599 POC Patraick A. Thornton, Contract Specialist, 202-426-0126; David Tyma, 202-426-0130, Contracting Officer; both FAX 202-426-0091 The U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) intends to modify its current contract DE-AC01-97EH97154, with SSDS, Inc. of Fairfax, Va for pilot deployment of the Medical Surveillance Information System (MSIS) software previously developed by SSDS, Inc. for DOE. The modification will extend software deployment support through Fiscal Year 2000, including operation of the pilot site at DOE Headquarters. As the majority of the MSIS software consists of source code developed by, and proprietary to, SSDS, Inc., the proposed contract action is for supplies and services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAD) 6.302. Interested parties may identify their capability to respond to the requirement and submit price proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within 45 days after publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. See Note(s): 22. ***** Posted 08/06/99 (W-SN364787). (0218)
