About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center (NSSC) has issued a Special Notice for the procurement of PSIM/Altair software licenses through a sole source contract with Altair Engineering Inc. The agency intends to acquire 35 Altair Units software licenses that are critical for power electronics simulation capabilities at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. This procurement falls under the Software Publishers NAICS category (513210) and will utilize FAR Part 12 and 13 procedures for commercial items and services. The contract is justified as sole source under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) authority, with Altair Engineering Inc. identified as the exclusive provider of the required PSIM software licenses. Performance will be conducted at NASA/GSFC over a 12-month period.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform potential contractors of NASA's intent to proceed with sole source procurement while providing an opportunity for other organizations to demonstrate their capabilities. Interested contractors must submit their qualifications and capabilities in writing to the designated procurement contacts no later than 2:15 p.m. Central Standard Time on July 29, 2025. The government will evaluate these responses solely to determine whether to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis rather than sole source. Any organization is eligible to respond, though oral communications are not acceptable and only written submissions will be considered. The software is essential for developing complex missions, designing satellite power systems, and creating wire harnesses, with delays potentially impacting project schedules or resulting in project cancellations.
