- Description
- NASA/LaRC has a requirement for renewal of GridGen software maintenance for the period August 1, 2004 through July 31, 2004. NASA/LaRC intends to purchase the support from Pointwise, Inc., as the only known source that can meet Agency requirements. Pointwise, Inc., is the sole distributor of GridGen Software. GridGen was originally selected to perform computational fluid dynamic modeling function due to its unique capability to perform this type of internal dimensional analysis. The maintenance support is required to continue receiving regular updates as new versions of the software are released; access to technical support; prompt notification of bugs with delivery of temporary work-arounds, and new documentation as it is published. Should any other software be used, several man-years of work would be lost, and have to be repeated. Such costs could not be recovered through competition. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on July 19, 2004. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
