Sole Source Notice for Alcorn State University Product Development Center (PDC)Alcorn State University is conducting a sole source procurement for professional consulting services through its Product Development Center in Lorman, Mississippi, under solicitation number 9210-27-R-RFIN-00001, with a response deadline of August 10, 2026. The contract, valued at $138,000, involves a twelve-month engagement with Donald & Associates Consulting Group to deliver an integrated suite of services including strategic planning, food manufacturing system implementation, regulatory compliance with HACCP, GMP, SSOP, and OSHA standards, product commercialization, branding, grant development, workforce training, operational documentation, and knowledge transfer. The procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1 as a sole source due to the vendor’s proprietary methodology, integrated implementation framework, and unique alignment with the university’s institutional goals, eliminating the possibility of competition without duplication of effort or fragmentation of services. Payment is structured as monthly installments of $11,500 based on performance milestones and formal acceptance of deliverables by the university, with no options, extensions, or alternative pricing tiers included. The place of performance is exclusively at the Alcorn State University Product Development Center in Lorman, MS, and all services are to be delivered on-site. Mertha George serves as the primary point of contact for procurement matters and payment coordination, located at 1000 ASU Dr #509, Lorman, MS 39096. Objections to the sole source determination must be submitted by the deadline and may be appealed to the Public Procurement Review Board. No formal contract clauses from the Federal Acquisition Regulation, list of attachments, packaging requirements, evaluation factors, or vendor representations and certifications are included in the documentation, consistent with the nature of the procurement being a non-competitive justification rather than a competitive solicitation. The funding originates from the university’s state appropriation, and while the solicitation references an RFx number and agency code, no specific accounting lines or payment office banking details are provided.

Performance is anticipated to begin on or about July 1, 2027, for a total seven-year period, with base awards not including options, though individual task orders may contain term and quantity options. The place of performance remains unspecified at this time. Contractors must demonstrate robust organizational capabilities and deep experience in developing MCMs against radiological and nuclear agents, with evaluation based on the comprehensiveness and soundness of the proposed scientific approach, the adequacy of personnel and facilities, and compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP), and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) standards. Project management competencies and the ability to collaborate effectively with NIAID, the FDA, and other federal agencies and MCM-developing organizations are critical. Proposals must be submitted exclusively through the NIAID electronic Contract Proposal Submission (eCPS) website at https://ecps.nih.gov/, with no acceptance of email or fax submissions; offline submissions via disc are permitted only if their content is identical to the online version. The NAICS code 541715 applies, and no set-aside provisions are in effect. While no maximum contract value has been disclosed, the structure supports multiple task orders to be issued over the life of the contract, with specific delivery requirements tied to the defined task areas.

FY26 Keysight Software MaintenanceThis contract involves the renewal of existing software maintenance and support agreements for Keysight Technologies licenses critical to the Department of Defense’s Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA). Specifically, it covers proprietary Keysight software suites ICCAP (Integrated Circuit Characterization and Analysis Program), MBP (Model Builder Program), and MQA (Model Quality Assurance) used extensively by DMEA engineers for semiconductor device modeling, characterization, parameter extraction, and quality assurance. The contract renews ten distinct licenses, including node-locked and floating license types, and adds a new perpetual license for the W7016E PathWave IC-CAP Power Electronics PowerMOS SiC extraction package. These tools are essential for ongoing semiconductor design efforts and Process Design Kit (PDK) development, with support and updates provided through February 28, 2026. The procurement is executed as a sole source acquisition under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) and 41 U.S.C. 1901, grounded in Keysight Technologies’ status as the exclusive provider of these highly specialized software products and maintenance services. Market research confirms no alternative vendors or authorized distributors exist. The contracting activity is DMEA, located in McClellan, California, with a designated place of performance in Arboga, California. The contract type is classified as “combined,” though no specific pricing, award value, or formal contract clauses typically associated with FAR Section I are present in the documentation. Award is based on price reasonableness drawn from prior contracts rather than competitive evaluation, and the contract follows an 8(a) sole source set-aside model, supporting socioeconomic goals. Inspection and acceptance are presumed to occur at the Government’s site, with Keysight responsible for license renewal, software updates, and technical support. The contract lacks physical delivery or packaging provisions, reflective of its purely digital software maintenance nature. Contact points include Michael Hallock Jr. as the Contracting Officer and Jesus Beltran serving in a program engineer capacity at DMEA. Overall, this acquisition ensures uninterrupted availability and sustainment of critical semiconductor modeling tools essential to DMEA’s mission.
