- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) in support of the USA Medcial Research Materiel Command (USAMRMC) is soliciting a sole source acquisition for Sole Source SmartDesk Software and Maintenance provided by Liquent, 101 Gibraltar Road, Suite 200, Horsham, PA 19044-2397. SmartDesk for PDF is a collection of Acrobat plug-ins that provide specific electronic submission centric functionality above and beyond what is available in the standard Acrobat application. SmartDesk for PDF enhances the PDF publishing process for electronic submissions by ensuring that all PDF documents are prepared in compliance with agency requirements. SmartDesk for PDF provides various automated capabilities, which replace manual processes and reduce the overall time and effort required for the PDF publishing process. Liquent is the only qualified vendor to provide the SmartDesk for PDF software that is designed to ensure efficiencies with the FDA submission process. Known as the Electronic Common Technical Document (eCTD) product, Liquent's InSight for Publishing and Insight for Viewing software was installed in 2013 by the eIT PMO and is maintained by the eIT PMO. The software is currently used by USAMMDA and available to the Command. SmartDesk for PDF is unique because it is the only PDF software that is able to integrate with the Insight for Publishing software used by USAMMDA to prepare submissions to the FDA. To implement a new eCTD system like the one put in production in the fall of 2013, the project would experience unacceptable delays in fulfilling requirements, and business practices would not be cost effective and would affect mission readiness. The government would also experience duplication of cost that could not be recovered through competition. If you have any questions, please contact James Cheng at 301-619-1012 or electronically at james.cheng1.civ@mail.mil Please provide the following items when responding to this solicitation: -DUNS# -CAGE Code -TAX ID# (TIN -Discount Terms (i.e. Net 30) -Delivery Time -Contact Information (Name, Telephone Number, Fax Number, and Email) -Any Shipping Cost
