This is a notice of intent to sole source, not a request for quotes, and no RFQ will be issued. The Set Aside line reads "No Set-Aside Used." The source states the sole-source basis as the renewal of existing software maintenance and EMA Design Automation's status as the sole North American authorized distributor for the Navy.

Contractors must be certified through the Defense Logistics Information Services (DLIS) to access Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or Export Controlled Information. CUI access is limited to a single point of contact (POC) per CAGE code, listed as the Data Custodian on the DD 2345.

Interested parties submit a clear and concise capability statement by email to Andrea.m.farrell7.civ@us.navy.mil, referencing solicitation number N6893627SIMACQDB0000MEB0000M0034. The statement must show the ability to perform the required work without compromising quality, accuracy, reliability, or schedule.
