AI Contract Overview

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, seeks to continue technical support for software development aimed at providing the Navy with a linear frequency-domain analysis tool to analyze underwater explosion (UNDEX) threat scenarios. This effort involves the proprietary ADQUES software owned and controlled by Weidlinger Associates, New York, which is uniquely suited and previously used for this purpose. Due to the proprietary nature of the code and the company's unmatched ability to make required enhancements within the project's timeframe and budget, the contract will be awarded non-competitively as a Firm Fixed Price purchase order under Simplified Acquisition Procedures, dissolving the earlier small business set-aside. The NAICS code for this procurement is 541330. The government emphasizes that no other source can effectively replace Weidlinger Associates without causing increased costs, duplicated effort, and schedule delays. Although this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, interested parties may submit statements of capability or expressions of interest by specified deadlines; the government will use such information solely to determine whether a competitive procurement is feasible. Responses are to be sent by email or fax to a designated contact at NSWCCD. The decision to proceed non-competitively rests entirely with the government based on the information provided.

Full Description

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for continued technical assistance in development of software to provide the Navy with linear frequency-domain analysis tool to allow users to explore threat space of UNDEX events. The set-aside for small business concerns has been dissolved. The NAICS code is 541330. In support of this effort, NSWCCD intends to negotiate a non-competitive procurement using Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and award a Firm Fixed Price purchase order to Weidlinger Associates, New York, NY. Weidlinger Associates developed and controls the proprietary code, ADQUES. No other firm can obtain the proprietary code within the time and funding available that will allow for the successful completion of this task. In addition, no other contractor has the capability to make potentially needed enhancements to the code. The requirement cannot be revised to allow sources to compete, as the ADQUES code has been identified by the NAVY as the only tool suitable for meeting the requirements specified in the SOW. This code was previously procured from WAI on a non-competitive basis. To award to any other contractor would increase costs, duplicate effort and require additional time. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received by 31March 2010 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Interested parties may forward their capabilities statements to Sandra Guarini by e-mail at contact@example.gov or by fax at +1 (555) 000-0000 on or before 20August 2010.
