GNAT Software

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is seeking to procure GNAT Pro Enterprise software for Ada development, specifically targeting multiple x86 environments including VxWorks 6.x, GNU Linux, and Windows platforms. The solicitation is for software that supports tactical ship control software development for Navy submarines, with specific technical requirements for Ada compiler, Integrated Development Environment, visual debugger, and comprehensive tool suite. The procurement will be awarded as a firm-fixed price purchase order to the lowest price technically acceptable quoter whose quote meets all requirements and is determined fair and reasonable. Quotes are due by 11:00 AM EDT on March 3, 2025, and must be submitted via email to christopher.c.rolince.civ@us.navy.mil. Respondents must provide company letterhead, pricing, CAGE code, FOB destination details, point of contact, and indicate business size or GSA contract number if applicable.

The contract is set aside exclusively for small businesses with a size standard of $47,000,000, using NAICS code 513210 and PSC code 7A21. The sole source justification document indicates that AdaCore is the current provider, with previous contract numbers including N0016721P0066, N0016723P0048, and N0016724P0048. The procurement covers multiple software components with specific technical configurations, including development and analysis suites for x86-64 Windows and Linux environments. Delivery is required to West Bethesda, MD, with a performance period extending from March 7, 2025, to March 20, 2026. A market search confirmed that AdaCore's GNAT Pro Ada software is uniquely positioned with proprietary rights that make alternative solutions non-viable, and the agency has been using this software for over 15 years.
