- Notice of Intent: The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) intends to award to Accelrys Inc. a requirement for the Material Studio (MS) modeling and simulation software package, including MS Amorphous Cell, MS Compass, MS Discover, and MS Visualizer. MS Amorphous Cell is a comprehensive set of model construction, simulation, and analysis tools for predicting properties of bulk amorphous systems. MS Compass is the first ab initio force field that has been parameterized and validated using condensed-phase properties in addition to various ab initio and empirical data for molecules in isolation. MS Discover offers atomistic simulation methods in areas including catalysis, separations, crystallization, and polymer sciences. MS Visualizer provides all of the tools to construct graphical models of molecules, crystalline materials, and polymers. Accelrys Inc. is the sole provider and distributor of the MS software package, and only licenses directly to end users and does not use any other distribution channels for the products. The Government believes that only one responsible source can provide the product and services that will satisfy the agency's requirements. A Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition has been prepared in support of this acquisition.

This notice is not a request for competitive quotes. The Government will consider all responses received within 5 calendar days of the date of publication of this notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based on responses to this notice is solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Inquiries will only be accepted by FAX at 303/445-6345, Attention: John Collins. Responses should include the firm's Dun And Bradstreet number (DUNS) and Tax Identification Number (TIN). Firms should identify themselves as either small business, or other than Small business, in accordance with the size standard for NAICS Code 511210 Which is $21,000,000.
