The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases intends to award a firm-fixed price contract to Bitplane Inc. for Imaris Infinity software maintenance and license support. This sole-source acquisition includes various licenses for Advanced Tracking, Programming Interface, ImarisBatch, ImarisCell, Filament Tracer, and a Floating License Manager. The software is essential for the Biological Imaging Section of the Research Technologies Branch to provide optical microscopy expertise and image analysis to NIAID investigators, as no other compatible software exists to support current experimental programming. The anticipated period of performance runs from June 30, 2019, to June 29, 2020, with delivery to Bethesda, Maryland. Processed under FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13.501(a)(1), the requirement is justified under 41 U.S.C. 253 (c) (1) due to the lack of available substitutions. While the government intends to negotiate with Bitplane Inc., interested responsible sources were given until March 14, 2019, to submit detailed responses for consideration.

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), intends to negotiate on an other than full and open competition basis with Bitplane Inc., 425 Sullivan Avenue, Suite #3, South Windsor, CT 06074 for the Imaris Infinity maintenance and software license support for the following: 1) fifteen (15) units of the Imaris 9.2 Advanced Tracking, 2) nine (9) units of the ImarisXT 9.2 Programming Interface, 3) three (3) units of the ImarisBatch 9.2 License, 4) six (6) units of the ImarisCell 9.2, 5) one (1) unit of the Filament Tracer 9.2, and 6) one (1) unit of the Floating License Manager. This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 12 - Acquisition for Commercial Items and will be made pursuant to the authority in FAR Part 13.501(a)(1). Only one award will be made as a result of this solicitation. This will be awarded as a firm-fixed price type of contract. Anticipated Period of Performance June 30, 2019 - June 29, 2020. Delivery to Bethesda, MD 20892. The Biological Imaging Section of the Research Technologies Branch provides expertise, instruction, and instrumentation in optical microscopy to all NIAID investigators. Staff members are available to assist investigators in experimental design and in the collection and analysis of high-quality images of living and fixed material. Techniques include confocal, fluorescence, and video microscopy, as well as postcollection quantification and deconvolution. To this end, state of the art Imaris software licenses and maintenance support are required to provide these services to NIAID investigators. There is no other software that is compatible with the existing Imaris software. To make changes at this stage would be detrimental to the investigators who have programmed their confocal data for experiments. The statutory authority for this sole source requirement is 41 U.S.C. 253 (c) (1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 only one source available, no substitutions possible. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTATIONS.
