About this opportunity
The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane is seeking a sole source service contract with Keysight Technologies for Inspector software, which is specialized for Side-Channel Analysis data analysis. The procurement is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 procedures, specifically utilizing a sole source authority due to the proprietary nature of the software, which is only manufactured by Riscure (recently acquired by Keysight). The solicitation (N00164-25-Q-0571) requires vendors to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and allows all responsible sources to submit a capability statement, though the government retains sole discretion on contract competition. Offers must be electronically submitted to christopher.m.jones405.civ@us.navy.mil by March 11, 2025, at 12:00 PM Eastern Time. While specific detailed evaluation criteria are not explicitly outlined, the procurement appears to focus on the unique technological capabilities of the Inspector software.
The contract is designated under NAICS code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services and PSC category 7A20 for IT and Telecom Application Development Software. The procurement involves USB portable subscription licenses for Inspector Acquisition, Signal Processing, and Inspector Analysis Premium software, with a base contract period from March 17, 2025, to March 16, 2026, and an optional extension period from March 16, 2026, to March 15, 2027. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price arrangement and is technically designated as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) solicitation. The place of performance will be the NSWC Crane Warfare Center in Indiana, with Joseph Randall serving as the technical point of contact. While specific award values are not disclosed in the documentation, the contract represents a specialized technological procurement focused on unique software capabilities for data analysis.
