D--IMT-SCHNEIDER SOFTWARE SUPPORT CONTRACT

The contract is a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order issued under FAR 12.102(a) for the renewal of Schneider Electric’s proprietary SCADA software licenses—Vijeo Designer, Advantys, and UnityPro—along with associated technical support services for critical infrastructure at Hoover Dam and Parker Dam. The procurement is justified due to the unique, proprietary nature of the software, which is incompatible with any alternative platforms and can only be lawfully obtained through Graybar, the exclusive authorized distributor in the Las Vegas area. The 12-month contract term begins in June 2026, with the place of performance designated as Boulder City, NV, and services extending to federal facilities within the Lower Colorado Basin. No physical deliverables are involved; software licenses are delivered electronically, eliminating the need for packaging, marking, or shipping requirements. The contract value is not disclosed, and no CLINs, pricing details, or option periods are specified. Evaluation factors, contract clauses, attachments, and formal inspection criteria are absent, as the acquisition is noncompetitive and follows simplified procedures for commercial items under FAR Part 12. The Bureau of Reclamation’s Lower Colorado Regional Office, through Point of Contact Noah Maye, administers the contract via email submissions and electronic invoicing through SAM.gov. No security clearances, key personnel requirements, subcontracting restrictions, or socioeconomic certifications are indicated, and the NAICS code 541519 classifies the vendor as other than small due to its global enterprise status. All contractual obligations center on maintaining uninterrupted operation of existing SCADA systems through licensed software access and technical support from Schneider Electric’s authorized channel.
