The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) intends to award a sole source purchase order to ANSYS, INC. for the procurement of ANSYS Discovery Pro TECS (3 units for 1 year) and ANSYS Thermal Desktop TECS (5 units for 1 year). This decision follows the assessment that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements.
The acquisition will utilize Simplified Acquisition Procedures as specified by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13.106–1(b). While this notice is not a solicitation for competitive offers, interested parties may submit evidence of their capabilities to meet these requirements. Submissions will be evaluated solely to determine if a competitive procurement process could be warranted, though the Government retains discretion over such decisions.
The procurement is classified under NAICS code 513210, and is governed by the corresponding Federal Supply Code. Vendors responding must reference the Notice of Intent number in all communications.
