SME utilizes metrics such as propagation results, fading effects while on the move, spectrum availability, and interference from various waveforms to automate the de-confliction of frequencies. The effort will consist of a 12-month subscription base period plus four (4) 12-month option subscription periods. The subscription periods per product are listed in the table below. It is the Government’s intent to make a sole source award utilizing the authority set forth in 41 United States Code 1901 as implemented in FAR 13.501(a)(1)(ii), sole source (including brand name) under the authority of the simplified procedures for certain commercial items.
