Description
Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific hereby publicizes its intention to solicit, negotiate, and award a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order (using Simplified Acquisition Procedures) on a noncompetitive basis with Cowan and Associates, 2316 S Eads Street, Arlington, VA 22202-2543, for continued program management, research, analysis, and software licensing strategy support services. Support is required for the DoD ESI Working Group and the IT Umbrella Program. DoD ESI requires subject matter expertise to support Software Product Managers, Contracting Officers, Navy leadership, and various customers in the acquisition and management of commercial software and related services. This effort will require contractor personnel who possess intimate knowledge on how to research and analyze software use on Department of Navy networks. Cowan and Associates (C&A) has developed its own knowledge and expertise on gathering software usage data from Government and other agencies. This knowledge and expertise consists of: C&A's ability to inventory software usage metrics and outside agencies' database management policies; C&A's established contacts and relationships; and the ability to cross reference its knowledge base with contacts to facilitate greater data sharing. Obtaining software usage data is complex in that no central location houses such data and no single agency, sub agency, or work section consistently tracks software usage data. Because of its experience, C&A is the only firm currently possessing the capability to immediately provide the necessary data which is a critical input used to formulate business cases, evaluate decisions, develop policy, and maintain the Navy's software licensing strategy. Based on the aforementioned facts, only one responsible source is reasonably available and no other supplier or services will satisfy agency requirements in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Be advised that the aforementioned information is anticipatory in nature and is not binding. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any firm believing that it can fulfill the requirement of providing these services may be considered by the agency. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this synopsis, and must clearly show the firm's ability to be responsive without compromising the quality, accuracy, and reliability of services provided. Any comments, questions or concerns regarding this notice may be submitted IN WRITING via e-mail to matthew.schupbach@navy.mil and karl.antolin@navy.mil. Anticipated Purchase Order Date: 30 July 2014 Anticipated Acquisition Strategy: One Source Contractor: Cowan and Associates, 2316 S Eads Street, Arlington, VA 22202- 2543 Contract Type: Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Federal Supply Code: R408 North American Industry Classification Code: 541611 Other Information: Anticipated period of performance: 9 months
