Informal Sole Source Justification
FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) For purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization).
In accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) the Social Security Administration (SSA) intends to fulfill this requisition with a Brand Name Item. The REXXTools for the VSAM processing, SSA previously purchased REXXTOOLS/MVS software (SS00-16-51007) on the ESEF (SY51 & SY52) and resides in Durham, NC. This procurement is additional software that would enable SSA to convert ALC code to REXX. This would be more manageable and easier to support SSA future software functionality.
This software is proprietary. Only Open Software Technologies has access to the source code necessary to provide the required maintenance subscription composed of version upgrades and updates, bug fixes and patches, and telephone/internet support. Open Software Technologies does not have authorized resellers.
