__ Description of the item or service required, the estimated cost, and required delivery date.

The purpose of this procurement is to provide via sole source, Western Services Corporation' s 3KEYMASTER Simulation Software for the Portsmouth Naval Shipyards Nuclear Engineering and Planning Department. In addition to the software, this procurement will provide the software vendor recommended hardware associated with optimum operation of the software. To support the Nuclear Engineering and Planning Departments (NEPD) mission, NEPD will purchase eight software licenses. One of the eight licenses will be the 3KEYMASTER Simulation Environment Development license The remaining seven licenses will be 3KEYMASTER Simulation Environment Run time licenses

). The estimated cost for the 8 licenses is . The software vendor recommended hardware consists of Six Elo 4602L PCAP Touchscreen Displays 46" 4602L E222373, Two Omnimount Play70 T V wall mount PLA Y70. Two Omni mount OE80FM TV wall mount OE80FM, Two Peerless SR575K Mobile Kiosk TV Cart SR575K, Fourteen Dell UltraSharp Infi nityEdge U24 I 7H 24" LCDs U2417H, and Eight T5820 Dell Precision Workstations. The estimated cost for the hardware is . To support implementation of the software into the programs managed by NEPD, the software and hardware is required by 8/1119.

__ Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source (un ique features, function of the item, etc.). Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.

The Naval Nuclear Lab (NNL) has developed a VIRGINIA Class S9G Type II Reactor Plant Simulation Model within the 3KEYMASTER Simulation Environment. This is a uniq ue Simulation Model that has been developed over a four-year period with an estimated investment in excess of . The 3KEYMASTER Simulation Software is the only product available to run the Reactor P lant Simulation Model generated by the NNL. NEPD is receiving the Reactor Plant Simulation Model from the NNL in order to implement departmental priorities tied to Shi ft Test Engineering Training, New Engineer Training, Radiological Emergency Response Dril l

Data Preparation. and Electrical Training Lab Construction. With the investment previously made to the NNL to develop the S9G Type II Reactor Plant Simulation Model in the 3KEYMASTER Simulation Environment, any effort for competition related to simulation software would result in duplicate costs to the Government for Model development and unacceptable delays in NEPDs project implementation. Therefore, to prevent excessive duplicate costs related to model development. and excessive delays for implementation of NEPDs department priorities. procurement is sole source to the specified software herein.

__ The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the government.

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

__ The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed/performing. Describe the equipment/function you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

_X_ A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is Western Services Corporation is the developer/publisher of this software and holder of its copyright and trademark. Western Services Corporation is the sole distributor and License provider of the software.

__ These are "direct replacements" parts/components for existing equipment.

__ Other information to support a sole source buy:

The 3KEYMASTER Software is approved for use on the SECNET network via the IT Definitive Software List and an approved ITPR. A plan of action has been formulated with the NNL to provide ongoing technical support for implementation and update of the Reactor Plant Model programmed within 3KEYMASTER. Licenses provided for use of 3KEYMASTER are perpetual, therefore providing long term savings compared to other simulation modeling software tools in which an annual licensing fee is required. 3KEYMASTER is the only compatible software with the Reactor Plant Model being provided by the NNL. The hardware associated with this procurement has a history of strong performance running 3KEYMASTER and is the recommended hardware from the software developer for optimum operation of the 3KEYMASTER software.
