- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to continue the services under purchase order number SB1341-11-AE-0098, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with GELCO Information Network GSD, Inc, for the acquisition of a Gelco Travel Manager Maintenance for Oracle/UNIX/Internet, Part Number GMOU120000 and Gelco Trravel Manager Retired Version Rates Subscription, Part Number GTMMISC for the Semiconductor and Dimensional Metrology Division at NIST, Gaithersburg, MD. It is intended that the period of performance will be continued for six (6) months from October 1, 2012 through March 31, 2013. Sole source is based on the Department of Commerce (DOC) has mandated that all Commerce bureaus remain on the existing Gelco software product, Travel Manager to prepare, route and submit travel documents for official Government travel until GSA competes the E-travel 2 evaluations and selects the new vendor(s). The software is written in compliance with the Federal Travel Regulation and contains various tables which support the functionality of the application (i.e., per diem rates, mileage rates, travel correspondences, etc). 1. Description: This requirement is for renewal of the Gelco Travel Manager software for the Oracle/Unix/Internet subscription (Part number GM0U120000) that NIST currently utilizes. This subscription and support shall include all necessary software upgrades as they become available throughout the period of performance. 2. The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) has mandated that all Commerce bureaus remain on their existing travel systems until GSA completes the E-Travel evaluations and selects the new vendor(s). The anticipated roll out of the ETS2 is 2013. Currently, NIST utilizes a Gelco product, Travel Manager for these services. Periodically, travel regulations and entitlements change, which mandate revisions and updates to the Travel Manager application. The Gelco Travel manager annual maintenance subscription is an annual recurring fee that covers extended technical support on supported Travel Manager products. Web site access to customer support, monthly worldwide per diem rate updates for current software versions available on our Web page, and other Travel Manager software updates. If this Gelco annual maintenance subscription is not renewed prior to its current expiration date of September 30, 2012, NIST will no longer receive the required technical support and updates for Travel Manager. NIST will not be able to use its existing travel system as mandated by the DOC and this will result in negative impacts to the Department, the mission of NIST, and the NIST travelers. Travel authorization and travel vouchers will not be properly prepared, calculated, and routed for signature which potentially will generate erroneous travel payments that must be reported to the Department. *****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 511520 and the size standard is $25 million. ******A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. *****No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, responses received by July 25, 2012 will be considered by the Government.
