- Description
- NASA/KSC has a requirement for STAR CCM+ Software and training. Items follow: 1. STAR-CCM+ POWER SESSION (1501.2) ANL 2. STAR-CCM+ Additional Session (1106.2) 3. STAR-CCM+/CAD EXCHANGE (1309.2) ANL NASA/KSC intends to purchase these items from CD-Adapco. CD-Adapco is the manufacturer and sole proprietary of the STAR CCM+ Software. No known vendors can supply this software and training. KSC's Launch Services Program is frequently called upon to provide quick turnaround analyses on complex geometries. STAR-CCM+ has a unique and comprehensive suite of geometry creation and preparation tools that significantly reduce the number of man-hours required to process the geometry through grid generation and solution. The built-in 3D CAD tool allows for parametric geometry creation, import and modification as well as automatic fluid extraction. The surface wrapper 'shrink-wraps' a high-quality triangulated surface onto the geometry, closing holes, joining disconnected and overlapping surfaces, as well as automatically discarding obsolete surfaces. This capability will significantly reduce the time required to incorporate satellite geometry into the fairing models for environmental control system performance calculations in support of spacecraft customer requirement verification/validation. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12 and 13. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 10:00 A.M. local time on January 14, 2013. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are NOT acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed. CD-Adapco's quote is due in writing (email preferred to kristina.irastorza@nasa.gov) not later than10:00 A.M. local time on January 14, 2013.
