NASA/JSC intends to renew the lease and maintenance for GENOA software, a proprietary engineering suite provided by Alpha Star Corporation. This specialized software is used to analyze complex composite structures and augment commercial Finite Element Analysis packages by providing Progressive Failure Analysis capabilities. It is specifically utilized at the White Sands Test Facility to investigate structural responses to material degradation in Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels for the Space Shuttle, International Space Station, and future applications. Because the software is protected by copyright, Alpha Star Corporation is identified as the sole known supplier for the lease, support, and upgrades. The government plans to acquire this commercial item under FAR Part 12. Interested organizations were invited to submit their qualifications by August 14, 2009, to help the government determine if the procurement would be conducted on a competitive basis.
