This procurement is solicited on an unrestricted, sole source basis as concurred with by the NUWCDIVNPT Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this acquisition is 513210. The Small Business Size Standard is $41,500,000

SOLE SOURCE JUSTIFICATION: iMotion software renewal is required to support the gathering of physiological data on a common timeline. Currently, each individual sensor provides unique software, data, and data output format. iMotions software is required to provide a common timeline capability that supports the sensors currently being used in the lab.

If not acquired, analysis time of experimentation will be significantly increased. Individual sensor analysis, in addition to audio and video processing of the experiment, will require individual data processing time and time to synthesize data across all formats. Increased time will impact time to output data analysis reports and data in direct support of Fleet activities.
