DMDC - Support for ActivClient Middleware Licenses

Added: Mar 02, 2017 3:23 pm

Limited-sources justification (LSJ) award of a Task Order

to HP Enterprise Services, LLC (HP ES), under GSA-

BPA ID02120007, awarded under GSA FSS, contract

No. GS-35F-0323J, on behalf of the Defense Manpower

Data Center (DMDC) for the procurement of Middleware

Support for ActivClient Middleware licenses.  The order will be

placed on a Firm-Fixed Price basis.  DMDC requested that

GSA's Assisted Acquisition Services (AAS) Division procure

and award an order for Middleware Support Services for

ActivClient Middleware.  The support will be provided to the

Joint Service Provider / Washington Headquarters Service

for its 11,300 seat licenses of ActivClient Middleware, for a

one year period, starting as soon as possible after award on

February 16, 2017, but no later than February 27, 2017, per

attached LSJ details.

In summary, Middleware products are uniquely constructed and the

data rights to the construction are owned by the manufacturer.  Only

the manufacturer of a particular middleware product is in a position

to render support services for its particular product.  In the case of this

acquisition, the Government has already fielded 11,300 seat licenses

of ActivClient, which have been in use successfully for many years, for

which only support services provided by ActivIdentity will suffice.
