Gensym G2 deployment licenses

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Lakehurst, NJ intends to procure two Gensym G2 deployment licenses to support lab-based development, testing, and troubleshooting of the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) system. These licenses are critical for the AAG system's health monitoring and prognostics capabilities, with the government planning to issue the solicitation on a sole source basis to SHI International Corp. The procurement will be conducted under the authority of 10USC 2304 (c) (1), which allows for a non-competitive acquisition when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. All interested parties may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation by June 21, 2025, at 14:00 PM EDT, which the government will review to determine potential competitive procurement. Inquiries and responses must be directed electronically to Contract Specialist Ms. Zaib Nageeb at zaib.nageeb.civ@us.navy.mil, with the understanding that no contract will be automatically awarded based on submitted responses.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designation for this opportunity, and the contract will be structured as a firm-fixed price procurement. The targeted NAICS code is 513210 for Software Publishers, with a corresponding PSC Code of 7A21 for IT and Telecom Platform Products. While no specific award value is disclosed, the procurement is focused on acquiring two software deployment licenses for a specialized technical application. The sole source designation suggests SHI International Corp (CAGE: 1HTF0) is the preferred and potentially only qualified vendor for these specific Gensym G2 licenses. The government will exclusively accept electronic quotations and will not mail hard copies of the solicitation or amendments to potential contractors. The procurement is aligned with the Department of the Navy's Naval Air Systems Command and supports critical technical infrastructure for aircraft system monitoring and diagnostics.
