About this opportunity

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division intends to procure Fidelity CFD license renewals from Cadence Design Systems, Inc. on a sole source basis under a firm fixed price contract. The procurement covers two floating license seats for Cadence Fidelity CFD software, specifically for computational fluid dynamics applications critical to naval simulations and marine-optimized meshing capabilities. The solicitation requires vendors to submit quotes that include company letterhead, pricing, CAGE code, FOB destination, point of contact information, GSA contract number if applicable, and business size documentation. Proposals will be evaluated using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable criteria, with vendors required to demonstrate technical capability and meet all specifications outlined in the Performance Work Statement. The quote submission deadline is July 17, 2025, at 12:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time.

This procurement does not include any set-aside designation for small businesses, despite falling under NAICS code 513210 with a small business standard of $47 million. Cadence Design Systems, Inc. serves as the sole U.S. distributor for the software following their acquisition of HEXPRESS from Numeca U.S.A., Inc., making them the exclusive source for these renewals. The contract structure includes a base period covering July 31, 2025 through August 31, 2026, with two additional one-year option periods extending through August 31, 2027, for a total potential three-year performance period. The specific contract values have been redacted from the available documentation, though the total estimated cost for the three-year period is referenced in the sole source justification. Performance will take place in Westlake, Maryland, with delivery dates of August 31st for each contract year.
