The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for development of Corrosion Cracking Maintenance Prediction Software. The compliant service is available solely from Vextec Corporation, as the required development can only be performed through Vextec. The NAICS code is 541511 and the business size is $30 million.

The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to Vextec Corporation.

The proposed action is for software development, for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii). The basis for restricting competition is for the following reasons: Vextec is the only source of the required services, with no compatible service on the market. The NSWCCD intends to award a firm fixed-price purchase order to Vextec Corporation using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.

Interested parties may identify their interest to this requirement by submitting a capabilities statement no later than 11:59AM 22 August 2022. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received by 11:59AM on 08/22/2022 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed purchase order based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the

Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
