The General Services Administration (GSA) has issued Request for Quotation 47QSSC-26-Q-0006 for the Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Keyport Division, to acquire brand-name maintenance licenses. The award will be based on the lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) quote. Key requirements include submitting quotes via email with the provider's UEI and CAGE code, a one-year subscription period from December 11, 2025, to December 10, 2026, mandatory electronic delivery of items, and the use of GSA's OMS Vendor Portal or Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) for order acknowledgment and shipment reporting. The RFQ incorporates various regulatory terms by reference and full text, including detailed clauses on inspection, payment, termination, and compliance. Questions should be directed to Mr. La’Venji Daniels at lavenji.daniels@gsa.gov.
This document justifies a sole source/brand name acquisition for AnyLogic simulation software, citing its unique ability to support all three simulation paradigms (discrete event, agent-based, and system dynamics) and its dedicated online community. Market research, conducted in October and November 2025, found no alternative providers on platforms like GSA Advantage, DoD ESI, JWOD, AbilityOne, Federal Prison Industries, or FSSI. Although a NASA SEWP request yielded no responses, prior use of SEWP for this requirement led to a decision to release an RFQ through that vehicle. The agency determined that an award for any product other than AnyLogic would not be in the government's best interest. This acquisition aims to achieve the best value through a competitive contract action, with an award based on the lowest technically acceptable price. Notice of this sole source action will be posted on eBuy.gov, and future procurements will include market reviews to assess other qualified vendors.
