Amendment 1 NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE 26AUG26.docx

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE:

This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive proposals. This is not a solicitation or request for offers. No solicitation package is available, and telephone requests will not be honored. Only one responsible source, and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

1. Intent and Authority The Government intends to solicit and negotiate a contract with Inventrix INC under the authority of RFO 6.103-2 (Unusual and compelling urgency). Due to unusual and compelling urgency, this notice is being posted for a shortened period to maximize competition to the extent practicable while meeting the Government's urgent schedule. Inventrix INC is the only responsible source capable of providing the Labtrac Clinic Portal Software License across 161 clinical sites (4 clinics local to Fort Gordon, GA plus 157 clinics DHA wide) without causing unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's urgent requirement.

2. Description of Requirement The contractor shall provide all services, software licenses, and necessary support for the Labtrac Clinic Portal Software. This requirement supports critical clinical operations and must be implemented immediately to prevent disruption of patient care and clinic administration across the designated Defense Health Agency (DHA) sites.

Specific Tasks: The contractor shall provide a Clinic Portal Software License for 161 clinical sites. This subscription must grant full portal service access across, which includes the Army Dental Lab, DDEAMC Dental Clinic, Snyder Dental Clinic, and Tingay Dental Clinic, plus 157 clinics DHA wide. The Clinic Portal is essential for managing dental laboratory workloads, scheduling, resource allocation, and maintaining compliance with FDA quality systems. The portal subscription must also include all necessary technical support, unscheduled maintenance, and software updates.

This acquisition is being conducted under the authority of RFO 6.103-2. Inventrix Inc is the sole developer, publisher, and distributor of the proprietary Labtrac Enterprise software, which is critical to the Army Dental Lab's mission. No other vendor is authorized or capable of accessing the proprietary source code required to provide the necessary software maintenance and support services. Procuring a different system would result in substantial duplication of costs to the Government and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirement.
