USACE, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Contracting Office intends to issue a sole source award to Ican, Inc., 7616 LBJ freeway, Suite 600, Dallas, Texas 75251-122 to upgrade the Lock Operations Management Application (LOMA) 4. This software is proprietary. CHL is requiring an upgrade to the existing LOMA application to address updates to supporting operating systems, databases, and data interfaces. It will add enhancements determined through experience with existing LOMA application and input from users. These modifications will make LOMA more reliable, address technical issues identified over the last 10 years of operation, and ensure integration into USACE waterways operations. The main objective is to upgrade LOMA software to use HTML5 for display and remove the use of Silverlight. This procurement action is exercised as sole source pursuant to authority of FAR 6.302-1(2), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements, and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), Contracts: competition requirements for the purpose of providing written consent and approval to award on an other than full and open competition basis.
