- Description
- *****PLEASE CONTACT ROSALIND FORD (ARCS), ONLY IN WRITING WITH ANY CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING THIS ANNOUNCEMENT AT ROSALIND.A.FORD@NASA.GOV ****** NASA/MSFC has a requirement for 14 IMAGEN RACKMOUNT SERVERS AND 1 YEAR MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT. NASA/MSFC intends to purchase the items from CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORP. (CCC) on a sole source basis. Competition is impractical for the following reasons: 1. Because of the complexity of the real-time computing, the systems running the real-time operating system must be certified by the provider of the systems. 2. Any new systems purchased without this operating system would not be compatible with existing systems already in use in the various labs. 3. The software deployed on these systems would require re-verification and possibly re-design, therefore, would result in significant schedule delays and labor costs. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on December 29, 2014. 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. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
