Description

NASA/LaRC plans to issue a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for the renewal of an existing Gridgen software license and maintenance. A one year option will also be included for maintenance. This procurement is being conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). NASA/LaRC intends to purchase the items from Pointwise, Inc., as the only known source who can meet Agency needs. Pointwise developed the Gridgen software, which is used to general numerical grids for use in computational fluid dynamics analyses to support design studies of aerospace vehicles. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on 9/28/01. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
