AI Contract Overview
Ansys Government Initiatives (AGI) Systems Tool Kit (STK) is a specialized software platform required for enterprise-level terrain analysis, visualization, and data interpretation in support of the Enterprise Collection Planner’s mission. The software enables advanced communication of results through reports, graphs, and 3D animations and is uniquely suited to integrate with aerospace, defense, and telecommunications data sources. This procurement requires the specific brand-name STK product due to its irreplaceable capabilities, justifying a sole-source acquisition under FAR 16.505(a)(4)(i). The contract has a projected performance period from September 9, 2026, to September 8, 2029, including a base period and two optional years. Offers must be submitted no later than August 6, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. EST. Numerous federal clauses govern compliance, including prohibitions on sourcing from covered entities such as Kaspersky Lab, restrictions on telecommunications and video surveillance equipment, requirements for whistleblower protections, and strict adherence to NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity standards. Additional provisions address supply chain risks, counterfeit parts, export controls, electronic payments, and the elimination of Class I ozone-depleting substances in all services or products delivered. The acquisition carries no set-aside and is open to all eligible contractors. A designated ombudsman is available to address concerns after initial consultation with the contracting officer but has no authority to alter evaluation outcomes or contract decisions. All submissions must comply with the requirements outlined in the RFQ, including mandatory representations regarding telecommunications equipment and former DoD official compensation. The point of contact for inquiries is Jennifer Keller, with performance taking place at Warner Robins, Georgia.
