Description
This is a Notice of Proposed Contract Action under FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This notice is for information only; a solicitation will not be issued. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 511210 with a small business size standard of $38.5M in average annual receipts. AFRL requires licenses of TopBraid Enterprise Vocabulary Net (EVN) and TopBraid Live (TBL), associated technical support & maintenance for one year, a Jumpstart package for onsite installation, and configuration, as well as guidance for the use of the software and structural review by their staff of ontologies modeled under the STAMPEDE effort. The products and services described above are not otherwise available to the Government and do not resemble the substance of any pending competitive acquisition. The TopBraid Live component is an intelligent business applications enterprise platform providing rapid implementation of solutions that integrate data, content, application services and user interactions. The ability to provide semantic solutions on an enterprise-wide basis is unique to TopBraid after a review of current competing ontology development tools. Furthermore, this capability is crucial to the ultimate success of the STAMPEDE effort. The Government intends to negotiate a sole source contract with TopQuadrant Inc., 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 220, Raleigh, NC 27606. The Government has determined that no other source can meet the requirement as the required software can only be procured through TopQuadrant Inc. This is a notice of proposed contract action and not a request for competitive proposals; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. All inquiries should be sent by email to Ashley.Ellinger@us.af.mil. Responses must be submitted by the date/time listed on the notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. Responses received will be evaluated; however a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 30 September 2015. A Sole Source Justification will be attached to the subsequent Notice of Award.
