Award Notice to Technologies for Tomorrow for Rackmount System Servers

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, under the Department of Defense, has awarded a firm-fixed-price contract to Technologies for Tomorrow for the procurement of thirteen 3U rackmount server systems configured as the TFT Compass CSB Xeon 6 model with part number TFT3U-1P1S1G0D-10780. Each system is equipped with an Intel Xeon 6745P processor operating at 3.1 to 4.3 GHz, featuring 32 cores and 64 threads, 336MB cache, and a 300W TDP, mounted in a 15.7-inch short-depth chassis with a 1200W 80Plus Platinum non-redundant power supply, six SATA bays with no included media, high-CFM front and rear cooling fans, dual USB 3.0 front ports, and four Mini-DisplayPort outputs supporting PCI-E 4.0 x16 at 70W. Additional features include a PC speaker for BIOS diagnostics, vibration and shock remediation, and comprehensive testing and configuration prior to delivery. The contract includes a three-year parts and labor depot warranty with advanced parts replacement. The place of performance is Panama City Beach, Florida, with deliveries required Monday through Friday, excluding weekends and holidays unless explicitly requested. The contract is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 334111, restricted to small business concerns as defined under FAR 19.5, and all offerors must comply with representations and certifications required for commercial items under FAR 52.212-3 and incorporate by reference clauses listed in FAR 52.204-19. The award was made under FAR Part 13, with evaluation based on best value to the government, considering price, delivery, quality, and past performance, with the latter potentially assessed through the Supplier Performance Risk System. The contractor must submit invoices and receiving reports exclusively through the Wide Area Workflow system, with a mandatory email notification sent to both the Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer’s Representative on the same day of submission—failure to do so will delay payment. Payment terms are net 30 days and require strict cost segregation at the CLIN or SLIN level for non-firm-fixed-price contracts, including detailed summaries of labor hours and categories, both straight and overtime, along with breakdowns of other direct costs, materials, and travel.
