VA One Software Renewal

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center (NASA/NSSC) has issued a Special Notice for the renewal of VA One Software licenses at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). Posted on February 11, 2026, this is a sources sought notice designed to determine whether the Government should proceed with a competitive procurement or continue with a sole source award to Keysight Technologies Inc. The procurement will be conducted as a commercial item acquisition under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 12 and 13, with authority under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). The NAICS classification is Software Publishers (513210), and the PSC category is IT and Telecom Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service (DA10).

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to renew software licenses for VA One, with the main deliverable being a license file submission from the contractor. The Government has identified Keysight Technologies Inc. as the sole known provider but is soliciting written capabilities and qualifications from interested organizations to demonstrate their ability to provide this product or service. The deadline for submissions is 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on February 13, 2026, with oral communications not acceptable. Any organization may submit written capabilities regardless of size or set-aside status, as no set-aside provisions apply to this procurement. The Government will evaluate submissions solely to determine whether to proceed competitively or award as a sole source, retaining complete discretion in this determination. The time-sensitive nature of this requirement is emphasized, as delays in license renewal could extend project schedules beyond fiscal year funding dates and potentially result in project cancellation.
