About this opportunity
The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of Synopsys electronic design automation (EDA) tools under contract HQ072725PE012, which was awarded on June 16, 2025. The procurement includes Synopsys TCAD Sentaurus software modules (Device Power and Structure Editor), Sentaurus Parallel tool licenses, and specialized EDA tools for integrated circuit design flow, particularly for complex Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designs. The sole source justification is based on Synopsys being the exclusive provider of these proprietary software products, with unique capabilities essential for Silicon carbide material analysis and current-voltage simulations, and no authorized resellers available in the market. The estimated contract value is $291,439.00, funded through Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) funds under a Firm Fixed Price contract structure. While the specific vendor name was not disclosed in the notice, the justification confirms that only Synopsys possesses the capability to update and maintain these specialized EDA tools, making them the sole viable source for this critical defense microelectronics capability.
