Added: Apr 07, 2014 8:12 am  

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City (NSWC PC) FL intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to ProModel Corporation of 556 East Technology Ave, Orem UT 84097 to develop and deliver specific functional enhancements to the commercially available ProModel® software used in the NSWC PCD Process Analysis Laboratory (PAL) to facilitate and streamline currently manual processes. The enhancements consist of integration of the ProModel® software with the Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 used on the PAL network and implement a Multi-View Enhancement to provide the capability to view different, non-overlapping parts of a model simultaneously. The anticipated period of performance is 12 months after award of the contract. This requirement is unsuitable for full and open competition for the following reason. NSWC PCD has developed extensive modeling sets for various littoral warfare systems and programs. Use of any other product would invalidate these models and require additional time and expense to the Government to develop new models. The enhanced version of ProModel® must be able to read, run, and edit models developed using earlier versions of ProModel®. Since the ProModel® software is commercial the Government has no rights in data to the design, architecture, or coding of the software. ProModel Corporation is the original developer and sole provider of the ProModel® proprietary software. Given these facts, ProModel Corporation is the only vendor that can meet this requirement. Award is anticipated on or about 08/01/2014.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract lies solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive requirement.
