SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION

MathWorks MatLab Suite Software Renewals and Maintenance

BACKGROUND:

The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) Code 85, Weapons, Vehicles, and Defensive Systems Department requires the purchase of MathWorks MatLab software reinstatement and maintenance under master license numbers 30277905, 30298652, and

30298653.

Market Research was conducted on various software programs, however, MathWorks MatLab suite is the only software system that provides the required modeling, simulation, and algorithm development that is required and that is interoperable with the existing NUWCDIVNPT network infrastructure.

NUWCDIVNPT previous contracts with MathWorks are: and

The period of performance (POP) for this contract is as follows: Date of Award through 31

December 2019. NOTE: Upon award software will be reinstated to include all software updates from 01 January 2019.

The anticipated award value of this contract action is

Sole Source Justification:

MathWorks is the original developer of MatLab software and toolboxes. MathWorks retains all proprietary information and copyrights related to this software. It is critical that NUWCDIVNPT reinstate and continue to utilize the MatLab software suite in order to maintain interoperability with system infrastructure

Furthermore, MathWorks is the sole provider of any updates or technical support in North

America for the MatLab suite. As such, MathWorks is the only source available that can provide the required reinstatement and annual maintenance support for the aforementioned licenses.

While MathWorks works with resellers, the required reinstatement services are provided solely by MathWorks.

RESELLERS:

As stated above, MathWorks is the only source that can provide the required reinstatement and maintenance of existing licenses.

Requiring Department:

Based on the above, I recommend this acquisition be conducted on a Sole Source/Brand Name

Specification basis. I certify the technical data which form the basis of this justification are complete and accurate.

Contracts Department Branch Head:

Based on the above, I have determined that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available/only this brand can fulfill the requirements. I certify that this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
