- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1), with COMSOL, Inc. for the renewal of COMSOL Multiphysics Software Licenses to be used by the NIST Office of Information Systems Management (OISM). ***** Sole source determination is based on the need to renew COMSOL Multiphysics Software. NIST has been using COMSOL Software for 10 years to model its research. NIST requires software that is compatible with the software currently in use. COMSOL software is the only software compatible with the task descriptions and job scripts currently utilized by NIST employees. Use of other software could result in additional costs to the government, lapse in research as well as the loss of essential capabilities required to complete NIST research. *****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 511210 - Software Publishers. ****** A determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. *****No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for quotations. Interested parties that believe they can satisfy the requirements listed above must identify their capability in writing before the response date of this notice. Only responses received by December 9, 2015, 5:00 p.m., EST will be considered by the government. Responses shall be submitted via email to amber.gray@nist.gov.
