Description

The Social Security Administration (SSA) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Policy Simulation Group INC, 1314 Kearney St NE, Washington DC 20017-4023 under the authority of 41 U.S.C. (253)(c)(1) as set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements,” for continued evaluations of the distributional implications of contributions and benefits in the Social Security Old-age and Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program. The Policy Simulation Group has developed proprietary software which allows analysts to perform both macroeconomic and distributional analyses of Social Security policy changes. The SSASIM and GEMINI software is a proven economical and technical solution for SSA’s policy research and analysis, which makes the continued use of SSASIM and GEMINI the most efficient and effective technical and cost solution at this time. This procurement will be accomplished in accordance with the format in FAR 12.6, in conjunction with FAR 13.5 as applicable. This acquisition will be processed under the simplified acquisition procedures. The NAICS code for this procurement is 511210, and the small business size standard is $23 Million. This requirement will include software licenses and the continued maintenance, technical support and training of SSASIM and GEMINI Software. The contract will have one base year and four option years beginning August 10, 2008. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct any future competitive procurement. Any vendor capable of performing the preceding requirements must present electronic/written evidence of such capability by close of business June 6, 2008. The evidence must include a discussion of how the software would satisfy the proposed requirements, contact information for no more than three (3) customer references, and associated GSA Schedule or commercial price information on the software and support. The Government does not intend to pay for information received and does not intend to provide evaluation results to the sender. All responses must be sent to traci.leach@ssa.gov by Friday June 6, 2008, 5:00 p.m. EST.
