About this opportunity
ACC Redstone is conducting a sole-source procurement for Questa Inspect Application Software subscription renewal from Siemens Industry Software Inc, with capability statements, proposals, or quotations due by September 9, 2026. Siemens is the only source capable of fulfilling the requirement under FAR 13.501(a)(2)(i) and FAR 5.207(c)(15).
The software performs advanced static analysis on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) Register-Transfer Level (RTL) source code, automatically detecting functional design issues in registers, finite state machines, buses, and memories in code written in VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog with IEEE 1800.2 support. The acquisition supports the Long Range Discrimination Radar (LRDR) project under Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation and Missile Center. The performance period runs from August 13, 2026 through August 12, 2027, with a desired award date of September 30, 2026. The justification evaluated alternative products—Synopsys VCS and Cadence Xcelium—but determined they would break compatibility with the project's seven-year established technical baseline, custom Verilog-based APIs, test benches, and automation scripts, and lack required SystemVerilog language support. The contract utilizes NAICS 513210 (Software Publishers) and PSC DA10. This is a simplified acquisition threshold purchase order funded by Army Research and Development FY 2026.
