- Description
- The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS) intends to award a sole source contract to Mark Logic Corporation located in San Carlos, CA for MarkLogic software licenses and annual software license maintenance. The requirement is for a Server Enterprise Edition license, MarkLogic Server Alerting license, MarkLogic Server Enterprise Edition annual software license maintenance, MarkLogic Server Alerting annual software license maintenance, and professional consulting services (65 hours). This purchase will be used to expand NAL's current MarkLogic software installation which is the basis for the DigiTop Navigator database search and alerts service. As the primary platform within DigiTop for database searching and the provision of current awareness alerts for scientific literature, Navigator is a key part of NAL's service to USDA and needs to be kept up to date and reliably accessible to users. With the full launch of Navigator to all of USDA in May 2011 and the retirement of the legacy system which previously provided these services in July 2011, additional software is needed to meet usage demands, and MarkLogic consulting services are needed for configuration and continued development of the system. Because this purchase is an expansion of the existing system no other software can be used for this purpose. While the software could be purchased from resellers, as the producer and developer of this proprietary software, MarkLogic is the sole source for the configuration component and as configuration is essential to NAL's use of the software, MarkLogic is the sole source able to meet the government's needs. Anticipated Date of Award: 08/04/2011
