NASA/MSFC has a requirement for the procurement of Information Technology (IT) Annual Maintenance/Warranty Renewal package (covers 678 Concurrent NASA owned IT units). The renewal is a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) remote subscription which includes the hardware “return-to-factory” service with RedHawk Linux software maintenance.
Under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), NASA/MSFC intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the IT Annual Maintenance/Warranty Renewal from the Original Manufacturer (OM), Concurrent Real-Time Inc. The OM, Concurrent Real-Time Inc., and sole distributor/supplier of the IT units which include proprietary hardware and software (RedHawk Linux real-time operating system) used by NASA for system testing and development. The OM, Concurrent Real-Time Inc., exclusively provides the associated warranties and service agreements to ensure long-term functionality for authorized users. Resale dealers or distributors are not authorized by the OM.
The Government does intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.
