About this opportunity

The Naval Air Systems Command has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source purchase order to Emenda USA Inc. for the renewal of SciTools Understand Software. The Commander Fleet Readiness Centers Procurement Group at Patuxent River, Maryland is seeking to procure one Annual DevOps/Continuous Integration License and five Understand Named User Licenses for a one-year period from July 22, 2025 to July 21, 2026. The software is a static analysis tool used for source code comprehension, metrics, and standards testing, specifically required to match with OEM Lockheed Martin systems for analyzing Operational Flight Program code written in the Ada programming language. The procurement is valued as a sole source acquisition under FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(i) because only one source is reasonably available and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's requirements. The Fleet Readiness Center Southwest at NAS North Island in San Diego, California will be the delivery location for these software licenses.

The Special Notice serves as a formal announcement that the government intends to proceed with a non-competitive procurement from Emenda USA Inc., the sole producer of SciTools Understand software with no authorized resellers. While this is not a request for competitive quotes, the notice allows responsible sources to submit capability statements within five calendar days of publication (by June 24, 2025) for the government's consideration in determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement instead. Any capability statements received will be evaluated solely to assess whether competitive sourcing is feasible, though the final determination to maintain the sole source approach remains at the government's discretion. The procurement includes comprehensive support services such as telephonic and email technical support during business hours, software license delivery via email, and access to software updates through the vendor's website, with billing processed through the Wide Area Workflow system.
