SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION:
At this time no other software is known to exist that meets NUWCDIVNPT’s minimum specifications. Only RTI Connext Software is known to meet this requirement and maintain compatibility amongst NUWCDIVNPT’s systems. In order to validate another software it v1.5_JANUARY2020 would cost the Government 1,000 hours of code rewriting to accommodate the compatibility concerns, which encompasses two software engineers performing these efforts for three to four months. Ultimately, this leads to total estimated cost of $225,000 to validate another software from a different manufacturer.
Due to NUWCDIVNPT already utilizing the RTI Connext Software on temporary licenses, it is not practicable to validate another software at this time. It is in the Government’s best interest to procure RTI software due to compatibility amongst existing systems at NUWCDIVNPT.
RESELLERS:
No authorized resellers. Real-Time Innovations (RTI) is the sole provider of the RTI Connext
DDS.
