CODY Software License & Maintenance Renewal

Notice of Intent to Sole Source to Cody Computer Services, Inc.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order to Cody Computer Services, Inc., 1005 E High St., Pottstown, PA 19464.

In accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1, the Contractor is the only known responsible source who can provide the services for the requirement listed below.

The purpose of this notice is to inform the public that the NIH anticipates issuing a purchase order to Cody Computer Services to renew its software license and maintenance services.   Services will include CODY software updates and resolution of any software issues that may occur.  The CODY software is proprietary data and is not compatible with any other existing system or program available on the market.The existing software is used for the documentation of 9-1-1 calls, producing police reports for evidentiary purposes, and legal proceedings, and therefore is critical across multiple Security and Emergency Response divisions (Police, Fire, and the 9-1-1 Center) and their life safety and first responder operations.

This notice is not a request for competitive quotes.  However, any party that can provide CODY software licenses and maintenance service may submit a written capability statement that clearly supports and demonstrates their ability to satisfy the requirement and that it is an authorized reseller.  A determination by the Government to compete the proposed award based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.

It is anticipated that an award will be issued within seven (7) days after the date of this notice unless the Government determines that another organization has the capability to meet this requirement.

Please email responses to zetherine.gore@nih.gov no later than 12:00 p.m. EST on Friday,  November 18, 2022.
