FY 25 Spring Framework 5. 3 Extended Lifecycle Support

The National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC), part of the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Detroit Arsenal, is seeking Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) for Spring Framework 5.3, including associated packages like Spring Boot, Spring Security, and Spring Data. This Request for Quote (RFQ) is designed to procure a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract with a base year and one optional extension year. The contract will support 4 developer users working on Windows OS, covering 8 CPU cores and providing out-of-the-box support for specific Spring Framework components. The government will utilize Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) selection criteria to determine the contract award. Potential vendors must submit their quotes no later than March 28, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. eastern, with any questions directed to Brad W. Morris at bradley.w.morris4.civ@army.mil.

The solicitation is not set aside for any specific business category and is open to contractors in the Custom Computer Programming Services (NAICS 541511) sector. While no incumbent contractor is explicitly mentioned, this appears to be a new contract replacing previous maintenance support previously purchased via Government Purchase Card. The contract will cover specific Spring Framework versions including 5.3.39 and 5.8.15, with support for core framework components like spring-test, spring-beans, spring-core, and spring-context. The place of performance is Charlottesville, Virginia, and the contract will support 150 total users across the organization. The total contract duration is 24 months, consisting of a 12-month base period with an optional 12-month extension, structured under two Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs): CLIN 0001 for the initial support period and CLIN 0002 for the potential extension.
