- N00164-17-S-NB30- SOLE SOURCE - ESRI SOFTWARE LICENSES, MAINTENANCE, & TRAINING - FSC - 7030- NAICS 541511 Anticipated Issue Date: 07 February 2017 - Anticipated Closing Date: 07 March 2017 - 3:00 PM EST (EDT) The Government is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) announcement as part of market research to justify the Government position to award a sole source contract for software licenses (ARCGIS Desktop and ARCGIS Pro), maintenance, and training to Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc (ESRI). Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division located at Crane, IN intends to award a sole source contract to ESRI; 380 New York St, Redlands, CA 92373-8118. This effort is anticipated to be conducted on a sole source basis in accordance with the statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. The basis for restricting competition is duplicative cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency requirement through any other source. ESRI is the only one that meets the current system requirements for Detail Geospatial production. This software is used throughout all the military services in multiple programs of record. This software is the main production software at the National Geospatial Agency which sets the standard for finalized products for use publicly and militarily. The Government is seeking information from companies with the capabilities to provide software that meets the current system requirements for Detail Geospatial production or companies that have provided the same or similar capabilities on other Government contracts that may overcome duplication of cost and untimely delays associated with awarding to another vendor. All interested parties are encouraged to submit company and product literature, a white paper no longer than 5 pages, and/or other pertinent information, such as a description with performance parameters and a statement of current availability, the reason why the Government should not procure this effort on a sole source basis as stated above, and /or identify other Government contracts with similar efforts for the Government(s) consideration. Responses to the Market Survey shall include the following: Submitter's Name Street Address, City, State, Zip Code Business Size Point of Contact (POC) POC Telephone Announcement Number: N00164-17-S-NB30 Responses should include availability, budgetary cost estimate, and lead time of the solution, as well as, an explanation on how the duplication of cost and untimely delays associated with awarding to another vendor will be overcome. Contractors must be properly registered in the Government System for Award Management database (SAM). Contractors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation of requirements by calling 1-866-606-8220, or via the internet at www.sam.gov. At the current time, NO FUNDING IS AVAILABLE for contractual efforts. This RFI does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB), a Request for Quote (RFQ), or a Request for Proposal (RFP) and it should not be construed as a commitment of any kind by the government to issue a formal solicitation or ultimately award a contract. The US Government is in no way liable to pay for or reimburse any companies or entities that respond to this announcement. Any costs incurred by interested companies in response to this announcement will NOT be reimbursed. Market Survey information may be submitted to the Point of Contact any time prior to the expiration of this announcement. The Point of Contact for this effort is Ms. Erin Wittmer, erin.wittmer@navy.mil or 812-854-5908. The mailing address is: NAVSURFWARCENDIV Crane, attention Erin Wittmer, Code 0233, Bldg 3373, 300 Highway 361, Crane, IN 47522-5001. If any part of the submittal is classified, please contact the POC for appropriate submission information.
