About this file
This document contains a recommendation and determination to solicit from a single source for a federal contract opportunity. The recommendation is for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to negotiate with Stratasys only for a 3-year extended warranty for their Fortus 900MC 3D printer. Stratasys has sole proprietary rights to the technologies in this 3D printer, and no other vendor can satisfy the requirement. Stratasys also has the capability to perform hardware and software maintenance while maintaining compatibility with other peripheral systems. Using another vendor could void warranties and maintenance contracts. The extended warranty is necessary to maintain compliance with ISO quality standards for equipment calibration. The related federal contract opportunity is a special notice for this 3-year extended warranty for the Stratasys Fortus 900MC 3D printer from the NASA Shared Services Center.
