About this opportunity

The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) has issued a Limited Sources Justification Notice for continuing MicroFocus software licenses and maintenance, specifically for Rumba+, Net Express, and Reflection licenses. The justification is based on the critical nature of these software products for DFAS's mainframe system operations, with market research conducted through NASA SEWP identifying Carahsoft and EC America as authorized resellers. The sole-source approach is justified by the extensive costs and time required to switch to alternative software, estimated at 8 years and involving significant user retraining, interface reprogramming, and hotkey/report recreation. The contract will span a base year of 12 months with four additional 12-month option years, with delivery required by October 1, 2024. While the specific vendor for the awarded contract (N6600119A0120) is not disclosed, the justification cites FAR 8.405-6(b) for brand name restriction and DFARS 208.74 classification of MicroFocus as an ESI mandatory source, underscoring the critical operational need for these specific software licenses.
