Smart UQ Software

The U.S. Army Contracting Command - New Jersey, on behalf of the Combat Capabilities Development Command- Armament Center, intends to issue a sole source Request for Quotation to SmartUQ, LLC for licenses to the SmartUQ (v.4.2 or newest) statistical software. The software will be utilized by 13 users to conduct uncertainty quantification techniques, design of experiments, and statistical modeling and analysis in support of weapon system research and development efforts such as the Extended Range Cannon Artillery program. The effort includes one base year and four additional option years for a total period of performance of five years. Responses to the pre-solicitation notice are not considered proposals and cannot form a binding contract.

The proposed sole source acquisition utilizes authority under 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented by FAR Subpart 13.5 and has no set-aside designation. The NAICS code is 511210 for Custom Computer Programming Services. The justification cites SmartUQ as the only software meeting requirements for deterministic simulation, emulation of computationally intensive models, and statistical calibration capabilities needed. The potential award value is $573,230 over a five year base period and four option years exercisable annually from October 2020 through October 2025.
