BRAND NAME JUSTIFICATION

PALISADE COMPANY LLC’S @RISK SOFTWARE SUBSCRIPTION

Findings:

The U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE), on behalf of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), has a requirement for Palisade Company LLC’s @RISK Software Subscription. Even though this is a brand name procurement, Palisade Company LLC has authorized resellers that can also meet the need of this requirement.

A total of seven (7) licenses will be procured for the Gulf of Mexico Region (GOMR) for the purpose of establishing and revising geologic risk element distribution curves in support of the 2026 National Assessment Geologic Play and Prospect Remapping and Risking initiative. This subscription shall improve the quality of the geologic interpretations and help to easily identify target areas more confidently for leasing and assess potential impacts from future leasing programs.

Purchasing a software subscription that includes support and maintenance for Palisade Company LLC’s @Risk Software is very important to BOEM. BOEM has utilized the @Risk Software application for over fifteen (15) years. BOEM has a considerable investment in using this software; it will leverage and maximize existing technical expertise, workflow training, and the extensive software investment.

Due to the specific nature of the data, @Risk Software is the only brand name that can work on BOEM’s application and perform certain assessments. This brand name software is required to complete the job. The support and maintenance for the licenses will begin upon receipt of the license. Support and maintenance services will include all upgrades, troubleshooting, technical support, and software maintenance.

The Contractor shall provide the @RISK Software Subscription for twelve (12) months. The period of performance shall be from October 1, 2021 – September 30, 2022. Additional details are provided below regarding the subscription.

Determination:

Based on the aforementioned discussion, a Brand Name procurement for Palisade Company LLC’s @Risk Software Subscription is in the best interest of the Government.
