70 -- ACQUISITION OF 2000 ''EUDORA'' LICENSES, DOCUMENTATION, AND MA INTENANCE. SOL RFP5-01860/031 POC Kenneth Wright, Contract Specialist, 301/286-7650. Leigh Anne Giraldi, Contracting Officer, 301/286-4962. NASA/GSFC intends to enter into a contract with Qualcomm, Inc. for the acquisition of 2000 ''EUDORA'' licenses, documentation, and maintenance. Eudora is a SMTP/POP3 compliant mail reader, supporting Microsoft Windows and the Macintosh. This acquisiton will be done pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1)--only one responsible source. This order is for 2000 Eudora licenses, 1000 Quick Reference Guides, Electronic Manuals, and 1 year upgrade and maintenance support. Eudora software is superior in its implementation of compliancy for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) standards. It is a standards-based mail reader that uses peer-to-peer, as opposed to store-and-forward, architecture. Competition is precluded because Qualcomm is the only authorized reseller and support provider of Eudora software. All responsible sources may respond by submitting a written narrative statement of capabiity, including detailed technical informaiton and other technical literature demonstrating the ability to meet the requirement, within 15 days of this notice, to the address below. Responses shall clearly identify the brand name, item number, terms and conditions, destination information, descriptive literature/technical information describing the items proposed, warranty and service information. The response must be sufficient to permit agency analysis to establish a bona fide capability to meet the requirements. Simple request for the solicitation does not permit such agency analysis in accordance with FIRMR 201-39.803-3(b)(2). All responses from responsible sources will be considered. If no affirmative responses are received within 15 days to determine whether a qualified source more advantageous to the Government is available, a contract will be awarded to the above named vendor. POC Kenneth Wright, Contract Specialist, 301/286-7650, NASA/GSFC, Greenbelt Road, Greenbelt, MD 20771. See Numbered Note(s): 12, 22, 25. (0055)
