About this opportunity
The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) is seeking to procure annual software maintenance and licensing for Cadence Design Systems Inc. electronic design automation (EDA) tools through a second Task Order under an existing IDIQ contract. The solicitation covers eight specific software products, including Assura Design Rule Checker, Virtuoso Schematic Editor, Spectre MMSIM, and related tools critical to DMEA's integrated circuit design flow. The procurement will be executed as a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) acquisition with FOB Destination delivery terms. Interested vendors must submit their quotes via email to makenzie.a.murphy.civ@mail.mil by February 13th, 2025 at 10:00am PST. The evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documents, but the procurement appears to be a sole-source acquisition directly with Cadence Design Systems Inc.
The contract opportunity is not set aside for any specific business category and will be performed at McClellan Park, CA. While specific award values are not disclosed, the procurement covers annual maintenance for multiple software licenses, with some products requiring one license and others requiring two. The contract includes an option for one additional year of software support beyond the initial term. Cadence Design Systems Inc. is the incumbent and appears to be the sole source for this maintenance due to the proprietary nature of their electronic design automation tools. The software maintenance will ensure DMEA receives continuous updates, technical support, and new product releases for their integrated circuit design capabilities. The total contract duration and precise budget are not explicitly stated in the provided documentation.
