Concurrent Real-Time Maintenance Renewal

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center (NASA SSC) is seeking to procure Concurrent Real-Time Maintenance Renewal services for specialized hardware and software systems used at NASA Ames Research Center. The solicitation specifically covers maintenance for multiple iHawk System Hardware units, ImaGen System Hardware, NightStar Tools software licenses, and RedHawk Frequency-Based Scheduler software. Offerors must be registered in SAM.gov and will be evaluated on a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) basis. The solicitation requires written submission of quotes by March 6, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. CT, with all contractual and technical questions due by March 5, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. CT. Contractors must complete representations regarding telecommunications equipment as part of their submission, and quotes must remain valid for 30 days.

This contract opportunity is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS category 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery equipment repair and maintenance. The maintenance renewal is specifically for Concurrent Real-Time Inc.'s proprietary systems, with a performance period from February 26, 2025 to February 25, 2026. The work will be performed at NASA Ames Research Center, with Duc Tran serving as the point of contact. The procurement involves maintenance for approximately 23 line items across various systems and licenses, including multiple hardware units and software maintenance packages. While the exact award value is not explicitly stated, the solicitation indicates a brand name requirement that justifies sole-source procurement due to the proprietary nature of the iHawk hardware and software systems.
