This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance

with the format in subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in

this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being

requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

Synopsis/Solicitation N0017820RS887 is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The

synopsis/solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect

through the Federal Acquisition Regulation as indicated in the attached SF1449. The

SF1449 form is being utilized to generate the applicable clauses from the Standard

Procurement System.

This requirement is not eligible for small business set-aside.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) intends to award on a

Brand Name basis for the purchase of a NetApp Expansion Package in support for

multiple NetApp Expansion configurations for the existing Classified Research,

Development, Test and Evaluation (cRDT&E) network, manufactured by NetApp.

Switching manufacturers to another solution would prohibit the reuse of existing NetApp

hardware requiring the additional purchase of additional components for the platforms.

Extensive personnel training on the new systems, as well as system redesign and

development, would also be required. Failure to procure this solution will cause the

Government to incur a greater cost. Procurement of an alternative brand would lead to a

substantial duplication of costs to the Government estimated at approximately

$3,500,000.00.

Please include shipping/freight cost for FOB destination Dahlgren, VA 22448-5114.

Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) will be utilized for award in accordance with

FAR Part 13. The order shall be firm fixed price.

All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which

shall be considered by the agency. At time of proposal submission please submit any

historical data as well as published pricing. Must quote BRAND NAME ONLY and

MUST submit letter of authorization as an authorized reseller or you WILL be

disqualified. Award will be made based on Lowest Price Technically Acceptable.

In order to be eligible for award, firms must be registered in the System for Award

Management (SAM). Offerors may obtain information on registration in SAM by calling

866-606-8220, or via the Internet at https://www.sam.gov.

Quote is due 5 Aug 2020, no later than 12:00 p.m. EST with an anticipated award date

by 30 September 2020. Questions and responses regarding this synopsis/solicitation

may be submitted by e-mail to suzanne.m.weber@navy.mil prior to the RFP closing.
