The United States Department Agriculture (USDA), National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), intends to negotiate and award on a sole source basis. Purchase Order type will be a one year Firm Fixed Price and awarded to Chainbridge Technologies. Chainbridge Technologies professional services group has both unique proprietary knowledge and a primary focus on delivering SQLDBI-based solutions. Services include requirements gathering, design, architecture, development, testing and final installation plus ongoing maintenance. Their services furnish turn-key deployment of applications. Their custom development services utilize their core proprietary product, the SQLDBI Solution Server. The SQLDBI Solution Server was developed exclusively by Chainbridge Technologies and they retain all rights to the technology. Chainbridge Technologies provides a specialized skill set as the foundation of the customized development service received from their group. There are no other commercial enterprises, organizations, or businesses that can provide these services.

In addition to the unique proprietary knowledge that Chainbridge Technologies can provide, the follow on work in the next performance period is integrally related to the work of the current period in such a way that any change in development approach would put the current Agency schedule at risk of missing important deadlines. Chainbridge Technologies is the only company with the proven reliability, along with a unique experiential base that is not otherwise available in the marketplace, to continue the current SQLDBI Solution Server Service required to effectively sustain the NIFA small application projects. NAICS Code is 541511.
