RAC SMART License Renewals

The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) is seeking a sole source procurement for a 12-month subscription to the Supportability Management Assessment Report Tool (SMART) license from Resource Analysis Corporation (RAC). This pre-solicitation notice outlines a contract requirement for a specialized software license that supports submarine Electronic Support Measures (ESM) systems. The SMART application provides critical obsolescence tracking and management capabilities, which the agency has utilized for nearly two decades to maintain system supportability. The opportunity is classified under NAICS code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services and falls within the IT and Telecommunications product service category. The pre-solicitation was posted on December 16, 2024, with a response deadline of December 17, 2024, indicating a very short turnaround time for potential contractors.

The contract does not involve any specific set-aside designations and appears to be a direct procurement from the incumbent vendor, Resource Analysis Corporation. No specific award value or budget range is explicitly stated in the pre-solicitation notice. The procurement is specifically for a 12-month subscription to the SMART license, which will support the agency's ongoing obsolescence management efforts for submarine support systems. As a sole source requirement, the contract is likely being awarded directly to RAC based on their unique capabilities and long-standing relationship with the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command. The contract appears focused on maintaining continuity of an existing technological solution that has been integral to the agency's system management processes for nearly two decades.
