- Notice of NIST's Intent to Negotiate on Sole Source Basis for SystemVue software upgrades and support The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) supporting The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Keysight Technologies, PO Box 4026, Englewood CO 8055-4026 to purchase SystemVue software upgrades and support for previously purchased software licenses.

A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
