- Description
- THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of intent to award both a brand name and sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c)(1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), 7701 Tampa Point Blvd., Tampa, FL 33621, requires renewal licenses for the following software titles from DLT Solutions Inc.: AutoCAD Architecture 2010, AutoCAD Raster design 2010, and Map 3D 2010. The 6th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to DLT Solutions Inc., 13861 Sunrise Valley Drive, Suite 400, Herndon, VA 20171. Interested parties may e-mail leyla.campbell@macdill.af.mil or fax 813-828-6967, Attn: Leyla Campbell, not later than Friday, 5 February 2010, 2:00 p.m. EST. Per FAR Part 5.207-13(e) Fed Biz Ops Numbered Note 22 applies and is modified to read: 22. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within five days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract 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. V. DEMONSTRATION THAT THE CONTRACTORS UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS OR NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRES THE USE OF THE AUTHORITY CITED ABOVE (APPLICABILITY OF AUTHORITY) DLT Solutions has been identified by the manufacturer of these software products as the sole government reseller. Autodesk Architectural Desktop, Raster Design, and Map 3D software have already been tested and certified to work in the ISP environment, and they are the only SOCOM-approved architectural software applications that fall under the ISP Programs Basis of Issue Plan (BOIP). The software is currently installed and in use at USSCOM. To solicit for another software source at this point would result in delays and users unable to meet mission requirements. Furthermore, the users are already trained on how to use Autodesk software. At this time, it is not economically feasible to evaluate other software brands, or to alter the current system configuration. This would only duplicate the research and integration that was already accomplished. Cost to replace this software with another brand is not expected to be recovered through competition. Replacement cost is estimated at $23,472.60 (or higher), which would be an increase of 57% or more.
