Notice of Intent to Sole Source

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) intends to contract using other than full and open competition for the continuation of an existing effort to provide expanded development efforts of Vendor-Neutral Automated Threat Recognition (ATR) software. Accordingly, TSA intends to award a contract to Stratovan Corporation, whose address is 202 Cousteau Place, Suite 115, Davis, CA 95618-7761. This contract will address the requirements to update the previously developed software kit (SDK) to the new DICOS 2.0A standard. The adapted version of the SDK will provide the tools for third-party development and will expand the detection capability of the algorithm.

The proposed contract action is for supplies and services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

Interested vendors who may wish to seek subcontracting opportunities should contact the above named company directly.
