Combined Synopsis/Solicitation for Teamcenter CADIQ(TcCADIQ) Software Licenses and Maintenance for COMFRC Digital Group

Title of requirement:  Teamcenter CADIQ Enterprise Software License and Maintenance for The Commander, Fleet Readiness Center (COMFRC) Headquarters (HQ) Digital Group.

Solicitation N68520-24-Q-0033 is issued as a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items and services prepared In Accordance With (IAW) the format in Subpart 12.6 “Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for Commercial Items”, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase under the authority of FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13.

Description of Requirement: 

The Commander Fleet Readiness Center (COMFRC) Digital Group Aviation Product Lifecycle Management (AvPLM) program requires two new Teamcenter CADIQ (TcCADIQ) software module licenses and maintenance support for previously procured CADIQ software module licenses, for use in the AvPLM environment.

The only known source for this requirement is International TechneGroup Incorporated (ITI). TcCADIQ maintenance support is required to meet the AvPLM program’s specific requirements and to avoid a duplication of cost.  Any substitutions may render some or all the software inoperable resulting in significant impacts to the program and the Warfighter due to having to manually analyze CAD data, introducing increased labor costs, increased risk of quality escapes, limited ability to identify material substitution or optimization opportunities, and delays in delivering parts to the Fleet. ITI is the only provider capable of meeting the necessary requirements of AvPLM due to their role as author of CADIQ, as well as their role as a tool integrator for Siemens Teamcenter.
