- Description
- DISA/DITCO, intends to issue a sole source contract to Aperture Technologies, Inc, 9 Riverbend Drive South, P.O. Box 4906, Stanford, CT 06907. This acquisition is for maintenance of Aperture TRVISTA software covering 81,000 square feet. The software being maintained is proprietary and protected by copyright laws. No third party maintenance is authorized. Period of performance is 01 Mar 2009 through 31 Aug 2009. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 USC 2304( c)(1), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Companies who can provide the above listed software maintenance renewal must complete the solicitation, HC1028-09-T-2069 available at http://www.fbo.gov/. The resultant contract will be a firm fixed price purchase order. This is a small business set aside. The NAICS code is 541513 for this procurement. The justification detailing the government's essential need for Aperture Software Maintenance is listed below. The following paragraphs, IAW FAR Part 13.501, are provided to support the brand name justification for proposed orders exceeding the micro-purchase threshold, but not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. This requirement is for the renewal of software maintenance of Aperture's product Vista 500C for 81,000 sq. ft. of DISA raised floor area. Vista 500C is an Aperture database, which contains floor plan drawings for each processing center. The drawings identify equipment locations, equipment environmental requirements, total floor space, inventory and other pertinent information. In turn, this provides authorized users access to Aperture data via secure web interface, and to operate with the secure ESM operating environment. The period of performance is 03/01/09 through 08/20/09. Aperture Technologies Inc is the only company in the United States that can provide support for this proprietary COTS software and is currently providing licenses/ maintenance under existing software maintenance contracts in DISA. Aperture Technologies Inc owns all proprietary rights to the source code. Obtaining replacement software products from other sources would result in extensive software conversions resulting in additional costs for the Military Services and Agencies and central design activities, which have developed in house applications using these COTS software products in their application systems. Therefore, a competitive acquisition for this renewal is not feasible, and it is determined that DISA will use Aperture products.
